Standard Schedule
A typical week begins on Sunday evening after 7pm and ends Saturday morning. Each Wednesday we take the day to experience a day hiking, swimming, tubing and/or boating at a local state park. Each group is involved in assisting the Maytown Center with planning and participating in community outreach activities, working on the construction site, working in teams to accomplish daily chores and meals. The days begin with a devotional time and the evenings include a worship service for singing, praying and talking about the day. Evening Feature activities include community dinners, game nights, and local music performances.
Transportation
CrossRoads does not provide transportation to this field. Upon arrival in Kentucky, your group is required to use its vehicles to travel to/from the work sites and living facilities.
Housing
While in Eastern Kentucky you will stay at the Maytown Center. The facilities include dorm rooms, bathrooms, showers, a kitchen, meeting area, and a picnic shelter and play ground. For quality sleeping purposes, we will provide a bunk bed. Your group is required to bring their own bedding. We recommend sheets, blankets and a pillow.
Food
While in Kentucky, your meals will be provided by CrossRoads Missions. Additional money is needed for meals while you travel and for any other personal purchases. Each morning participants and staff work together to prepare breakfast (pancakes, eggs, biscuits and gravy, etc) for the entire team. Lunch meals are picnic style including deli sandwiches, chips, cookies, fruits, and veggies. The evening meal is also prepared by participants and staff. You can be certain to expect hearty, hot meals.
