How to Receive Travel Updates

Our youth group has the amazing opportunity to travel to different places for events like camp, retreats, mission trips, or otherwise. However, this often comes along with the possibility of travel delays or other outside circumstances that affect our schedule (today, being a prime example!).

So, how do you, as a parent, stay informed about arrival times and travel updates?

Here’s a couple options:

First and foremost, we will be using Yaptap for travel updates. Good news for those of you who have been unable to sign up for Yaptap in the past, there is now an easy-to-use sign-up page online.

Follow this link, and search for Woodmont Hills Student Ministry to get started.

Secondarily, we will use Twitter. And, we should also be able to get word to the church office about delays if you’d like to call Vera for updates.

These are the quickest ways to distribute updates from the road, so they will be the primary methods of communication in the event of a travel delay.

Beyond that, if you have not subscribed to this blog by clicking one of the “Follow” buttons, please do so. By choosing to follow the blog, you will receive an email update each time we post (you can also choose to receive a daily digest rather than multiple emails if we post more than once a day). This blog will almost always contain the most comprehensive and detailed information about our events and announcements.

Thank you all for staying in touch with us. We had an incredible weekend, and I’m so thankful to be able to serve such an amazing group of students.

Peace to you!

Victory in Appalachia Day!

As expected, the hills, mountains, cliffs, mountain cougars, raging white waters, biting goats, and rivers of lava have proved no match for our fearless adventurers.

Not only will our team of rugged expeditioneers be returning victorious, they will be returning almost a full day ahead of schedule. Take that, Mother Nature.

The team will now stop in the bustling metropolis of Franklin, North Carolina to feast like royalty and be showered with riches (and water and soap and stuff, hopefully), before mounting the mighty steeds that will carry them home to the hordes of admirers awaiting their return.

We can likely expect them around 4pm, or roughly thirty seconds after hearing the sonic boom and fifteen seconds after seeing fire streak through the sky.

Happy V-A Day! (I’ll post updates if the group’s ETA changes at all.)

To All the Corners of The Earth (And Beyond!) – Trek Travel Update

Our intrepid and fearless explorers are well on their path to manifest destiny this afternoon, as they have arrived safely in Franklin, North Carolina to begin their journey into the unknown.

We have full confidence that they will discover many new lands and species, both flora and fauna, on their path to greatness. No beast will dare raise a hoof against them and no mountain will seem more than a foothill, for they are the great wanderers, the conquerors of the earth, and living legends among mere day-hikers.

Wish them well on their journey, friends. May God give them the strength to endure the most momentous of all tasks before them: spending a week without access to Facebook.

Godspeed, adventurers.

We’re Heading Home!

We’re currently headed home from an INCREDIBLE week at camp, and we want to keep you updated on our arrival time.

We were able to leave on schedule, but there is standstill traffic on I-40, so we will not be back at 2:30 as planned. For now, please plan for student pickup at 3pm, but stay tuned for more updates.

Thank you, and see you soon!

Medina Update 1

It’s 10 minutes after 4am on Monday June 25th. We are outside of Hillsboro Texas and all is well.

More to come later.
