FAQ:

What's a Rest weekend?

We unstrap the Stone so it can stand on its own.    This weekend is meant for honoring the rest that a season of giving requires.  Any weekend folks come together to appreciate the accomplishments of a season of community, service, and commitment is a Rest Weekend.


How much does it cost to attend?

Tickets are free!

This is a relaxing weekend for community.  Come for the day or come for the weekend.  Limited no-fee accommodations available!
