What will I need spending money for?
Districts T-Shirts
Districts will be selling t-shirts (see image on right). The T-shirts cost $10 each and are available in the following sizes: S, M, L, & XL. The larger 2XL – 4XL sizes are available for $12. T-shirts sell quickly so buy one right away, if you want a t-shirt. We did not pre-order any t-shirts for youth this year.
Books/CDs/Shirts
There will be multiple vendors selling items, such as cds or t-shirts from the musicians or books and Bibles from the bookstore. If you think you would be interested in purchasing something like this, bring money to do so.
Sunday Lunch
You will need money to buy lunch on Sunday at the food court of Bay Park Square Mall. You will probably need between $8-$10. Mall options include A&W, Sbarro, Charley’s Philly Steaks, Maldonado’s (tacos, burrito’s, etc.), Nori Japan, Stir Fry 88, & Subway.
Offering for Service Project
An offering will be taken to help cover the cost of the service project for this year’s Districts (Providing pizzas in neighborhoods and praying for people in Green Bay as a way to love the city.). We encourage you to bring money to contribute. Even just five dollars can go a long way if every one gives. $5 times 4,500 attendees = $22,500! Bring some money and let God show you that it is truly better to give than to receive.
Seminars
Check out the seminar options and start thinking through which one(s) you want to go to.
