Final Details
What to bring:
Clothing – As you pack, keep in mind the Midwest can be cold and damp at this time of year. Mornings and evenings can get chilly, so make sure to pack warm clothes, but also be ready for the midday warmth. If you plan to play sports, bring the proper attire.
Bedding – You will need to bring your own bedding [twin bed], pillow, and towel/washcloth. A limited number of these items are available upon request and for an additional fee to those flying to P4C. If you need linens and you did not request them on your registration, please email us.
Bathrooms – Please note that the shower facilities are located separately from the cabins. To ensure your convenience, we recommend bringing a tote or bag to carry your toiletries, towel, and any other personal items you might need. This will help you transport your belongings easily to and from the shower area to your cabin.
Extras – Feel free to bring games that you would enjoy playing with other attendees. A Bible, notepad, and pen are highly suggested. Flashlights are a must!
Theme Dinner:
’The Family: An Evening at Château Mermont
Step back in time to the opulent era of the 1920s and 1930s as we invite you to an unforgettable evening at the iconic Château Mermont Hotel in Hollywood. Hosted by a distinguished mafia family, this exclusive theme dinner promises an evening steeped in intrigue and elegance. Immerse yourself in the glamor and sophistication of the period as we gather for an important meeting, where secrets will be shared, alliances formed, and memories made. Dress in your finest vintage attire and prepare for a night of delectable cuisine, captivating conversation, and the enchanting ambiance of a bygone era. This is an event you won’t want to miss!
For an event centered around a 1920s and 1930s mafia theme at the Château Mermont, the attire should reflect the elegance and sophistication of that era. Here are some suggestions:
- For Women: Glamorous evening gowns or cocktail dresses with vintage flair, such as those with art deco patterns or intricate beadwork. Pair them with elegant accessories like feathered headbands, pearl necklaces, and vintage-style gloves. Creativity is key!
- For Men: Classic tuxedos or suits, ideally with a 1920s or 1930s touch. Think sharp lapels, pinstripes, bow ties, or regular ties, and possibly even a fedora or a classic pocket watch to complete the look. Make a look they can’t refuse!
Overall, aim for a sophisticated and polished appearance that captures the essence of the glamorous and mysterious world of the era.
Note – The web is a great place to research costume/formal ideas! EBay, Amazon, or thrift and antique stores often have great items for little cost.
