1:00 Grace Fest: Let’s Party and Celebrate 5 Years!
Visit several self-care stations, eat, visit the vendors and of course keep your ears open as several raffles will take place throughout the celebration. Enjoy the DJ, chat with old friends and most importantly make some new ones. OH! Be sure to take lots of pics.
We purposefully will conclude our retreat (approx 3P) with time enough in your afternoon to enjoy some of the eateries or shopping in the area, or perhaps go home for a needed nap.
Dream Again FAQ
Q: What are the exact times?
A: Saturday morning registration and breakfast begins at 9:15. We’d love for you to join us at 8:45 however for Morning Glory (a time of praise and prayer.) Otherwise, we purposefully aim to end things by 3P on Saturday so that you still have a good portion of your Saturday evening for personal use. On time arrival is strongly suggested.
Q: Will I need money?
A: Remember your registration INCLUDES continental breakfast and lunch. There will be vendors on site all day if you choose some retail therapy.
Q. Is there a parking lot?
A: Yes! There is parking on both the side and back of the building. Additional parking is also available using Bank of America’s lot which is to the direct back, left of the church.
Q: What is Saturday’s attire?
A: As we celebrate 5 years, this year we suggestion a Denim and Bling attire. HOWEVER, how do you want to dress? If wearing a pair of heels makes you feel happy, wear them. If a baggy hoodie and leggings is what you feel like, that’s ok too. NOTE: Some breakout sessions will be in the lower level of the building so feel free to bring a sweater or jacket for our cold natured sisters.
Q: Can refunds be requested for any reason?
A: Sales are final. If for some reason you can no longer attend, but would like to transfer your registration to someone else, please let us know.
Q: Only 1 day this year?
A: Yes, to incorporate some new things as we celebrate 5 years but also keeping all the former Dream Again aspects you’ve come to love, this year is only Saturday, November 1st.
