Additionally, students will have the opportunity to create connections with fellow students and staff, fostering a sense of community and support.
You must fill out an application to express interest in attending. You will receive a confirmation email to let you know you’ve been selected to attend, and then you will secure your spot with $20. The $20 covers food, lodging and transportation. The last day to sign up is Saturday, Sept. 30.
Chapel credit is offered for those who attend. If you have questions, feel free to contact Cyndi Murillo at cmurillo@georgefox.edu.

George Fox community, we are aware that parking on the east side of campus (near Villa Road) is challenging, and that it may seem like the best option to park across the street, rather than walk from a farther distance.
Please be aware that our neighbors are tired of having driveways and mailboxes blocked as well as difficulty seeing clear enough to pull out onto Villa Road. The Newberg-Dundee Police Department is patrolling, and if you are found parked illegally you may receive a fine of $115.
Please be respectful of our neighbors when parking. Morse lot, near the softball field, is an alternate lot you may park at. Thank you for your understanding.
