Wildman Weekend is an annual weekend where men get away to a rustic setting in the beginning of October to slow down, eat lots, hang out, and get dangerous for God. Our traditional destination has been Chilliwack Lake Camp. This year’s retreat will be held on October 19 – 21, 2012.
Wildman is designed to be an affordable time for guys aged 8-88 to purposefully escape from the chaos of modern life, get into a natural setting (we are the only resident on the lake!), connect with friends and make some new ones, and hopefully go deeper with God along the way. How wild do we get? We eat like kings
(gotta love Jim’s Prime Rib feast!!), make the fires really big, sleep, play Axis & Allies, break out the potato guns (and other firearms depending on your legal status), jump off the dock into an incredibly cold lake, construct saunas on the beach, hike through pristine rain-forest, watch 7-foot men ride around on mini bikes, and whatever else our creative, redeemed (thought I better put that in!) male minds can come up with. And if all you want to do is get away and rest (aka, sleep!) then you need to come.
It’s a highlight for many MRCC men and their sons, and you need to be there next year. Contact Pastor Duane if you have any questions.
