Winter Blast Three Ages: Sr High
This retreat for Senior High youth incorporates all the best parts of Deep Freeze events – great food, fun winter activities, inspiring chapel speakers and full worship band – but the schedule will include more free time for your group to chill out together and make some lasting memories with new and old friends.
Camp Crossroads
Finding God in every moment
Friendship
Winter Blast retreaters all come with their church youth groups and so there is a lot of time in the schedule for deepening friendships that will continue at home. There are also fun opportunities to mix with other youth groups and make new friends. We'll make sure the hot chocolate machine is primed and ready!
Faith
A full worship band and chapel speaker will provide opportunities to be encouraged and challenged in your faith journey. There is also time set aside in the schedule for Chillin' in Church groups - a time when each church youth group can spend time discussing what was taught in the chapels and how it applies to daily life.
Fun
Winter activities include an outdoor skating rink, downhill tube run, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ice-fishing, etc. We'll provide program leadership where youth groups can mix together and work on their team building capacity while having fun outside.

Renée Serez
Renée loves youth retreats, especially up at Crossroads! Having served 7 years as a youth leader and 3 as a youth pastor, she’s been to MANY Deep Freezes and Winter Blasts. She is super excited to be a part of whatever God has in store for this weekend.
Renée’s responsibilities have recently changed from youth ministry to Pastor of Missional Engagement at WMB Church. She has a heart for seeing people of all ages (but especially teens) step out of their churchy comfort zones and take risks for Jesus. Renée also loves bubble tea, board games, and beating people at movie trivia 😉
