  • There are four main sessions which include gospel teaching and worship. They will take place in the Ballroom at Majestic Beach Resort (11212 Front Beach Road.) These sessions are required for all students, and family groups will need to walk from Laketown Wharf.

  • Family Groups will consist of 1-2 house moms OR dads, and students of different grade levels who will live, eat, and share in the beach weekend experience together.

    These groups are designed to foster deep connections and encourage open dialogue as you deepen your community and faith throughout the weekend.

  • You’ll be divided into classes based on your grade groups: Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. Each tribe will face off in a series of exhilarating challenges designed to test your teamwork, strategy, and grit.

    The goal? To outwit, outplay, and outlast the competition, all while forging stronger bonds with your fellow students!  

    Don’t forget to bring your class colors!

  • Beach WKND is designed with you in mind!

    It is a 3 day retreat to Panama City Beach with hundreds of other college students involved at City Church Salt. The weekend is comprised of 4 Services with music & teaching followed by small group discussion within your family groups.

    The weekend is built around getting time away from the distractions of school to go further in your faith and develop better bonds in Christian community alongside other students. There is a lot of free time built in for you to enjoy the beach and being with friends.

  • Located in the heart of Panama City Beach, Laketown Wharf is the largest single-building condominium vacation resort in the Panama City area. (9902 S Thomas Dr, Panama City Beach, FL 32408)

    At this condo, you will be staying with 5 to 8 other college students in a spacious 1 to 3 bedroom condo.

    Laketown Wharf provides amenities for the whole family to enjoy including a fitness center, five swimming pools, a large freshwater lake, 52,000 sq ft of lakefront boardwalk, and easy access to our beautiful beaches.

  • House parents are Salt Student Leaders responsible for the students in their family groups. Their tasks include ensuring all students have a ride to PCB, planning meals, grocery shopping, cooking food, leading small group family time, connecting with students, and providing additional care & hospitality as needed.

  • All meals (Friday dinner - Sunday breakfast) are provided! Each student will be assigned a villa with a house parent (or two!) These house parents are Student Leaders at SALT, and they will be cooking and providing the meals for their villa all weekend long.

    Students are encouraged to communicate any allergies or restrictions to their house parents before the trip.
