Labor Day Dance Weekend

Join us for Worship & Dance!

Labor Day Weekend
Dogwood Tabernacle – Seymour, MO

The dance weekend we hosted several years was a great success, so we made it an annual event! This is a great time to learn many dances, including those we will be dancing during Sukkot.

Whether you are a musician, dancer or you just enjoy praise & worship, this is a great opportunity for you. If you are not coming to celebrate Sukkot with us, you are of course welcome to join the dance weekend for great fellowship and lots of music & dancing.

Come here later this year to register with us if you are planning on coming so we can have a head count and prepare the correct amount of food for the meals. Thank you!

Registration

Please register for the event, so we can have a head count to help us plan enough food for the meals.

There is no registration fee since this event is fully based on donations and volunteers. Donations will help cover the cost of group meals and costs of using the building.

What to bring

Meals

Group meals will be provided. Just bring a dish to share for the two potlucks: Friday dinner and Saturday Oneg. Donations are greatly appreciated to offset the cost of the provided meals.

We recommend to bring your own snacks if you think you will need those.

If you prefer to bring your own meals, no problem. We have two refrigerators and a chest freezer, however some of the space in those will be taken up with the group meals we have prepared ahead of time.

Shower Facilities

We have one shower available for anyone to use during the weekend. Bring your own towels.

Lodging

Camping space is available for RV’s or tents behind the building. However, there are no electrical, water or sewer hookups available of any kind.

There are hotels nearby in Ava (about 15 miles east) and Ozark (about 27 miles west):

If you would like to stay with a local family from our congregation,
let us know and we will try to make that possible.

Quiet Time

We would like to have quiet time in the church and camping area from 10:30 pm until 7 am. Feel free to continue great fellowship with quiet conversations and games during these hours. Thank you!
