This Conclave begins Thursday, October 18th. You can arrive as early as 3:00 p.m., registration opens at 4:00 p.m., and by early evening, we’re ready for our opening dinner and introduction. Conclave continues all day Friday and Saturday through Sunday morning. After the Sunday morning final event, we have our feedback brunch, cleanup and farewells. The Conclave is over by 2:00 p.m. To experience the full impact of Conclave we ask you to commit to staying until 2:00 p.m. on Sunday.
The Conclave site is an indoor group camping facility in beautiful southwestern Wisconsin. We meet and eat in the main lodge, sleep and shower in cabins with bunk beds. (All buildings are equipped with electricity, heating and plumbing.)

Registration!


It’s important to pre-register! All attendees must pre-register!! We must know how many to plan for! Also, we expect there will be additional items we would like to suggest you bring for this Conclave that will be listed in your response packet. Registration brochures should be mailed by mid-August.

Should I bring anything?

You will need to provide your own bedding, towels, and toiletries. Please bring whatever you need for your comfort—your favorite pillow, teddy bear, chocolate, extra cloths to create a bit of privacy around your bed, soft throw rug to greet your feet in the morning—but don’t bring illegal substances, alcohol, firearms, or weapons.
