7th & 8th Grade Ochevviefest 2022 (3 Days & 2 Nights)
Dear Ocho & Sevvie Student Families,
One of the highlights of attending The King's Academy is the opportunity to attend class retreats. For returning families, you know what a special experience it is for your student to get away with their class. Once again, TKA is offering our junior high fall retreat for our 7th and 8th grade students. We are designing Ochevviefest to help students grow personally and spiritually, bond together as a class, and build relationships with staff as they gain invaluable personal knowledge and experiences through this time together. Students, come ready to have some fun!
Ochevviefest will be held at The Salvation Army's Redwood Glen in Scotts Valley, CA (3100 Bean Creek Rd, Scotts Valley, CA 95066, www.tsaredwoodglen.org), a one-hour drive from TKA. Activities include Chapel meetings, singing, fun games, swimming, basketball, volleyball, soccer, field games, hiking trails, human foosball, other afternoon activities, free time, star gazing, campfires, and more!
