Alabaster Group is excited to welcome you to Spring Retreat 2022, to worship and seek God with us! Eligible Registrants and Registration Fees Spring Retreat 2022 is only open to current full-time students pursuing undergraduate, graduate, and professional degrees from accredited universities. We are offering free registration for students between the ages of 18-26 from certain target universities (Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, MIT, NYU, Princeton, UPenn, and Yale). Registration includes lodging and meals throughout the event, and we will also provide free transportation for students from certain universities (see details below). Students are eligible for free registration up until the Early Registration Deadline on Apr 8, 2022 at 11:59PM EST. After this deadline, you may still register, but free lodging will only be on a space-available basis. If you attend a non-target university, please email [email protected] for more information. Transportation For this retreat, our staff will provide FREE transportation for students from Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, MIT, NYU, Princeton, UPenn, and Yale. Please note that our vans will depart from these campuses as early as noon on Fri Apr 22 and may not return until late afternoon/evening on Sun Apr 24. This service is available to all students who register prior to the early registration deadline. Retreat Format The retreat will include sessions from Friday evening to Sunday morning service. We will provide Friday dinner, 3 meals on Saturday, and Sunday breakfast. Accommodations As a courtesy to attendees, we provide complimentary accommodations for all students at the conference hotel. Rooms will be shared by up to 4 students. We request that registrants obey all hotel rules and act in a respectful manner toward hotel staff and other guests. Requesting Roommates: Students may request roommates on their registration form or by emailing [email protected]. We cannot guarantee these rooming preferences and will only accommodate them when possible. However, we may be unlikely to honor roommate requests for any student arriving late. Disclaimer of Liability: Alabaster Group arranges accommodations solely as a convenience to attendees. Please know that we cannot vouch for registrants. Since we invite all qualified students to attend our events, it is impossible for us to have any insight regarding the behavior of other attendees. By accepting our rooming arrangements, you release Alabaster Group, our staff/affiliates, the conference hotel, and our partners from all liability directly or indirectly related to our offer to provide rooming. Though it is standard policy for student conferences like ours to room students together, certain students may feel more comfortable purchasing their own room, and we encourage you to do so. Meals All meals are provided throughout the conference. Our caterers represent different ethnic traditions, so certain foods may be unfamiliar. Our caterers cannot always accommodate dietary restrictions, although we will offer vegetarian options when possible. We recommend for attendees with more restrictive diets to bring their own food. If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected] to discuss options that would best serve you. FAQs Q: When should I plan to arrive on Friday, Apr 22nd, 2022? Students are highly encouraged to arrive before 6PM when dinner begins. Evening session commences promptly at 8:00PM. If you anticipate arriving after 6PM on Friday, please email your registration coordinator with your arrival time. Q: I am not a university student and would like to attend the event. What should I do? Please email [email protected] and a registration coordinator will be in contact with you. Q: I have another question. Who should I reach out to? For all other questions/concerns, please email [email protected] and our registration coordinators will respond promptly. Speaker Information Speakers TBA
