Refract Weekend Away 2011

About the weekend away:

The Refract weekend away is happening from Friday 11th - Sunday 13th November 2011 at the Buckden Towers, St Neots, Cambridgeshire.  Buckden Towers is a superb residential centre in the picturesque setting of a what was once Buckden Palace with modern facilities. For more information about the centre, please visit http://www.buckden-towers.org.uk/


The weekend will be filled with a host of different activities, with worship, discussions, games, talks, prayer and much more.  It is an opportunity to deepen your faith and develop your relationship with God.  And marshmallows.


The cost of the weekend will be £30 per head. This cost will cover accommodation, food and transport. Because we are going as a group from churches around Berkhamsted, places on the weekend away are limited to only 6 per youth group and will be distributed on a ‘first come, first served’ basis.


We hope to be leaving Berkhamsted at 5:00pm on Friday 11th November by minibus and car, and returning at around 5:00pm on Sunday 13th November. However, none of the travel arrangements have been finalised, so we will let you know as soon as we have organised them.  We will inform you nearer the time as to the location of drop-off/pick-up.


If you’d like to come on the weekend away, please contact your youth leader for a booking form here.
