We start on a spiritual note with a Temple session at the Las Vegas Temple on Thursday for those who wish to participate.

Friday Group Excursion!

This year we’ve organized some daytime fun on Friday even before registration officially opens at 5pm…

Valley of Fire

World-renowned for its 40,000 acres of bright red Aztec sandstone outcrops nestled in grey and tan limestone, Valley of Fire State Park contains ancient, petrified trees and petroglyphs dating back more than 2,000 years. A Visitor Center provides exhibits on the geology, ecology, prehistory and history of the Park and nearby region.

Saturday Group Excursion…

Silent Heroes of the Cold War National Memorial

Join us for a peek inside a powerful, little-known chapter of American history!

On Saturday morning, we’ll carpool together to Mt. Charleston to visit the Silent Heroes of the Cold War National Memorial—the nation’s only memorial honoring the secretive military and intelligence professionals of the Cold War.

The site commemorates a 1955 plane crash tied to a classified U-2 spy program, whose victims remained unnamed for over 40 years. Part history, part mystery, this excursion promises a meaningful shared experience and a chance to connect over stories rarely told!
