After each Large Group gathering\, participants gather in a Small Group. Each group includes a handful of youth and a couple of adult leaders. In small groups\, participants will get to know other Lutheran youth from Virginia and discuss life and faith as well as other topics that arise throughout the weekend. \nOn Saturday afternoon\, there is a large chunk of Free Time during which participants can continue building relationships\, enjoy outdoor recreation\, visit the Eagle Eyrie coffee shop and ice cream parlor\, and more. Our annual Talent Show will also take place during this time; it’s a great chance to support your friends and show off a unique talent. \nIn the evenings\, you will relax in your Cottage and gather with other youth and adults from your congregation and other congregations to talk about how the weekend is going. \nHere’s a little video that gives you a first-hand look at what happens at Lost and Found! \nSomething to note: If you’ve been to 7th Day\, our overnight retreat for 5th and 6th graders\, this event is a little different. Lost and Found is more of a discussion-based event where participants get to know their small groups through games\, activities\, readings\, and more\, and better understand their faith as it relates to the event theme. If you have more questions about what Lost and Found is all about\, please contact Tina Toburen\, toburen@vasynod.org. \nWe hope to see you there! \nIs it your first time coming to Eagle Eyrie or has it been a while since you’ve visited?
