KITCHEN I am pleased to be able to announce that Ken and Leslie Schwartz from Immanuel Webster are heading up our kitchen team this year. Ken and Leslie are veterans of Winter Weekend and have wonderful kitchen experience as well. Gunnar Antell and Bill Santangelo are back as well. I’m told that we can look forward to Real Homemade Italian Meatballs. Yum! Don’t forget that each Family Group will be assigned to help in the kitchen for one meal, either to help serve the meal or to help with clean up - yes, that means dishes! COOKIES! CANDY! Each church is asked to please bring in 2 dozen cookies and one bag of individually wrapped candy or one bag of bulk popcorn to share as a part of the snack for Friday and Saturday nights. Thank you!
CUPCAKES Check out Sugar Mountain Bake Shoppe on Facebook and their website. They are donating gourmet mini creme-filled cupcakes for the weekend! They are awesome!
FOOD ALLERGIES If you or anyone in your group has food allergies or dietary restrictions, please let us know asap so we can take that into account when ordering food. In particular - let us know of any dairy, nut or wheat allergies and vegetarian needs.
If you were unable to attend the Advisor and Chaperone meeting on February 6th, please contact Kristin at office@atonementrochester.org to get a copy of the materials for Winter Weekend.

PREPARE FOR IMPACT
Our theme is“Prepare for Impact”, and we want to know,
“How has Christ/ church/ your pastor/ Winter Weekend impacted your life?”
Choose one (or someone else who has impacted you) and make us a video! You can make an individual video or work with your Youth Group. Have fun with it!
You can use a flip video, I-phone, webcam, or a video camera and show us your stuff, YouTube style. (They will NOT be shown on YouTube, but may be a part of WW slideshows). You can send videosto office@atonementrochester.org.
Prizes will be awarded!But we don’t care if it’s interview style, movie style, simple or creative, we just want to hear YOUR stories. Deadline has been extended to February 21, 2010.
There will also be an opportunity to make “video diaries” during the weekend - your chance to tell your story (3-5 minutes) about the impact of Winter Weekend.
Don’t be shy!
