Registration for the Fall Retreat is almost ready!
[update – it’s READY – click here to REGISTER]
We are so excited for our community to gather again November 5th – 9th! This year we are making some changes to the schedule with the goals of:
- Maximizing the support attendees receive during the Retreat
- Helping new folks assimilate into the group more easily and
- Enabling ALL of our Radiant Community to get the most out of the workshops, activities AND just being together!
As we finalize registration details, we wanted to go ahead and announce prices so everyone can plan their finances accordingly. In order to make the Retreat happen, we’ve had to raise some of the prices a smidge. But don’t worry! There are still plenty of opportunities available to reduce the fees for your family.
Since it’s its inception in 2013, we have tried to keep the Radiant Retreat affordable for as many families as possible. So the prices started out very low compared to other conferences. We want you to know that we have wrestled with the numbers to keep it as affordable as possible, but due to everything that is involved in putting on the Retreat, we feel that the prices this year are still very fair for everyone. The organizers make a considerable investment of time, energy, expertise and money to plan and execute the Retreat, and the prices must support that.
We also want to highlight the fact that this event takes a considerable amount of COMMUNITIY EFFORT to make it happen because we don’t have a hotel staff taking care of us and the facilities like many other conferences. We have to take care of it ALL – and that’s what’s so great about the Radiant Community – the way members step up to help where help is needed!
In 2013, when I was planning our stay at Cleburne State Park, the Rangers said that because our group would be over 50% kids, the park would be littered with trash by the end of the weekend and they were sure that “something would get torn up” because middle school aged kids were included. I assured them that our group would not be typical in that manner and they just laughed. Sure enough, the “Radiant Tribe” was very respectful of the grounds and facilities and we proved those Rangers wrong!
The Radiant Tribe IS remarkable and EVERYONE’S contributions make the Retreat GREAT!
So here are the prices so you can plug them into your budget. If it turns out that you need “Tuition Assistance” you can apply for Radiant Staff jobs here in exchange for Registration Credits to reduce your fees.
