IMPORTANT!  You need to send us your forms and money as soon as possible.  The first Houseparty last year was a huge success and we are limited to just 29 places - and about half that number has already been reserved ... so if you want to come let us know soon!!

So, if you haven't done so already, this is what you need to do:

1) Click on the the Forms menu link to the left of this newsflash.

2) Click the "Print icon" on the top right .

3) Send it back to us with your cheque.

4) Relax, smile, get in shape for the gruelling "prayer jogs" and practice your singing for the concert night - because there isn't too long to go!!

Sorry about the delay to release the info for this year's houseparty.  At first the cost for the hostel had increased prices by about 400% on last year - so after much panicking and praying we somehow managed to get it for the same rates as last year .. although we still had to pay the full cost up front, so if you could help us out by sending in your money soon it would be very much appreciated.

And - yes, the rumours are right - this year you will again be seeing the best firework display ever held in the back garden of a youth hostel, potentially the best "Initiative Hike" ever created and a carefully chosen movie for Saturday night (no, not Spongebob Squarepants.  Sorry).
