BEYOND SUMMER…

What happens when summer ends at Montreat Conference Center? The fall season begins! Along with cooler weather and the changing leaves, fall brings us its own special events, activities, and opportunities to enjoy.
Much of the recreation offered by the conference center during the summer continues year-round. Play tennis, volleyball, and softball, take the children to Robert Lake Park, or go fishing in Lake Susan. The hiking trails that wander through Montreat’s 2,500 acres of protected wilderness are breathtaking in every season and the Montreat Trail Club schedules exciting outings throughout the year.
Fall conferences include:

- Arts and Sabbath: the Montreat Artists Series
- Life-Long Living
- Continuing Education for Commissioned Lay Pastors and Lay Preachers
- Fall Evelyn Green Retreat
- Young Adult Weekend
See our conference schedule for the complete list of programs, and while you’re there, check the 2009 conference schedule to start making plans for next year.
Fall is also a great time to plan a church retreat. A limited number of prime dates are still available, or ask about special fall rates and dates at Assembly Inn. In addition, the popular Room at the Inn Thanksgiving special is available again this year.
