technocon

Who:

Youth grades 8-12 and adult sponsors

What:

A Con is 1 day and 2 nights of fun with fellow Unitarian teens with adult chaperones. We will be exploring the role technology plays in our lives, its effect on our relationship and interactions, where it is coming from, and where it is taking us. We invite you to join us for some serious discussion and a whole bunch of fun. Throughout the duration of the Con there will be several workshops to choose from related to this topic. One of the workshops will include silk-screening so be sure to bring a T-shirt if interested. There will also be lots of great food!

 When:

Friday, February 26 - Sunday, February 28, 2010
Check in after 7pm Friday; be out by 8:00 Sunday morning. (You are welcome to stay for the service at 9:00).

No drugs, no alcohol, no smoking, no sexual stuff, no weapons or explosives, no leaving church grounds, respect church property and the people in it, and the "no-rule" will be in effect (explained onsite). If you can't abide these rules for a couple of days, then this con is not for you!!
  • Entertainment will include movies that have been approved by adult conference leaders, and some of those movies deal with mature themes (but no explicit sex or gratuitous violence), and there will be alternative activities at those times.
  • On Friday night separate rooms for guys and gals will be available. 
  • On Saturday we offer one big room for all. If that is a problem, check the box below; we have other rooms. 
  • Two "night angels" (adults) will be awake and vigilant throughout both nights.

You can register by clicking on a button at the end of this form, OR you can print it out and mail it in with a check (don't mail cash!) and the required signatures.

If you submit the form electronically (by clicking the button near the end of this page), you ALSO have to print out the form and have your parents or guardians sign it. Then bring it with you, along with the fee if you don't pay online, when you arrive at Con. Please don't mail cash. If you mail a payment, make it a check. No walk-in registrations.
