As we get move into the 2026-27 school year, you will notice some changes to our regular events. This year instead of going to Winter Blast at IPOINT, we will be going to Fall Blast. As well, we will NOT be doing Reality Apologetics this year, but we will be attending the Clarity Conference which is being held at Hillcrest Academy in Fergus Falls January 15-17.
The Clarity Conference, is a worldview weekend hosted at Hillcrest Lutheran Academy. Apologetic teaching, practical breakout sessions, and meaningful worship anchor the weekend, with games and trivia tournaments to build community. The weekend is designed for youth groups, which have the opportunity to stay in the Castle dormitory at Hillcrest where they will have small group time and build meaningful connections.
Hillcrest’s food service will provide meals, and Hillcrest’s activities staff will organize games and tournaments. Hillcrest’s expert teachers provide the apologetic training.
Registration will begin at the fall student/parent orientation meeting. The cost is $90 and that cost includes both Fall Blast and the Clarity Conference.
