The word retreat conjures up visions of peace, of insight, of time away. TYME OUT Youth Center offers a welcoming, comfortable space for teens and preteens to experience those things. TYME OUT has overnight accommodations and programs for children and youth from churches, schools, and other youth agencies. We like to think of a retreat as a "time out" from the ongoing routine of life, to check in with how we're playing the game, and then go back in to play our best.  Come join us!
