Dear Guests and Visitors at “The Land”:

For your convenience, here is a short “check list” outlining information you will need to remember when arriving and departing the facilities.

There is no official check-in/check-out and the facility will be open and ready for your arrival at the time requested at reservation. Please, only park on marked sections. The building sidewalks and underground water pipes do not support the weight of cars when loading or unloading supplies. (This does not apply to the Pavilion/picnic area)

Before departure, group leaders should check before the group leaves to make sure clean-up is completed. Please also make sure any lights, air-conditioners or heaters in cabins are turned off. Any checks may be made out to Christian Outreach Ministries or “The Land”.

We have no paid staff here at “The Land” and therefore, need to make clear to all retreat attendees, the opportunity and requirement of leaving a good “clean” witness behind for the next incoming group; to be specific, this means:

ü Making sure the restroom facilities used are cleaned, swept & mopped (cleaning supplies are located under sinks)

ü Kitchen floors swept & mopped, carpets vacuumed, (cabins may be swept)

ü ALL trash bagged and taken to the brown dumpster when leaving. This includes the Pavilion area if used. Dumpster is located at the entrance to the property near mailboxes.

The next group will know your testimony by what you leave behind…

PLEASE…… make it a clean one!

Our desire is for everyone’s stay here at “The Land” to be a spiritually uplifting experience so they may come away refreshed and renewed in The Lord.

If there is anything you need, please call Carol Garner at 770-924-0513,

or Paul Storey at 770-924-1345.

In His Service,

Carol Garner
