Think of sessions like Fuse, but with seniors only. We’ll sing, pray, and learn from some incredible speakers.

Girls will room with girls, and guys will room with guys. You’ll be in a group of seven students and one leader.

Depending on how the room assignments work out, you’ll either be with three other students or two students and your group’s leader.

Leaders will sleep on the floor and will be your group’s guide for the retreat. You’re adults, so we plan to treat you as such. Leaders are there to help you stay safe and get the most out of your three days.

Yes. Transportation to the Powdersville Campus will be your responsibility. Everyone will leave their cars or be dropped off at the Powdersville Campus and take the buses downtown. At the end of Gauntlet Senior Retreat, we will take the buses back to Powdersville where you will drive yourself home or get picked up.

We appreciate your desire to serve students! However, we think we’ll already have enough adult leaders to staff this event. Instead, we’d love to help you get started serving at Fuse. Reach out to your campus Fuse staff to learn more.

In light of how COVID-19 changed all of our lives, we decided in April to forgo our annual trip to Daytona Beach in hopes of doing something different closer to home. Gauntlet Senior Retreat was the result!

We are closely following guidelines from state and local officials to make sure we’re doing what we can to send seniors off safely. We’ll follow all government recommendations for this size and scale of event.

We’ll check students’ temperatures when they arrive at the Powdersville Campus, and every student and leader will receive masks and hand sanitizer.

We’ll disinfect surfaces that students and leaders touch frequently. We’re also limiting the number of people at tables and in rooms. We’ll have no more than eight people at a table and four people in a room.
