Program Overview
The gathering begins on Monday, September 7 with registration and a welcome reception. We will have opportunities throughout the week to hear from many inspiring speakers and leaders as well as worship, surf and serve together. Most meals will be shared and we will officially end the Gathering after the Saturday, September 12 morning session. You are also invited to stay for an after-party and board swap before celebrating together at the NCCC Saturday evening service. In addition, A CSALT Intensive will begin Sunday evening and run through Wednesday… Stay tuned for more information to follow!

Accommodation
We have arranged for a block of heavily discounted rooms at a local hotel. Please book directly with the hotel at Carlsbad by the Sea Hotel  (click on “Do you have a group code?” and enter “christiansurfers”). The group code is valid for 3 days prior to the Gathering and 3 days after the Gathering as well. If you need additional accommodation beyond this window please call the hotel directly.

*Please note there is currently a fee that pops up when you register. The hotel are working to remove this but for now you will need to accept the fee and it will not be charged at check-in.

You may also stay wherever you choose. Airbnb, Booking.com and other avenues are great options to find places to stay in the area.

Delegates
This is a gathering for Christian Surfers leaders, friends and ministry partners. Please check with your National Leader or Regional Coordinator if you are unsure about attending. Others exploring CS as a mission are welcome. We also invite our friends from other surf missions.
