Welcome to the Registration for
our upcoming Base Denver Retreat
Deepening our Roots
Friday, August 30 - Sunday, September 1, 2024

Base is the home of a Rabbinic family which serves as a home-base for community, learning, and mentorship. Join your Base community for a weekend retreat where we will celebrate Shabbat together through spirited song, discussion, and prayer (traditional and experimental) and of course food and play! For this retreat, we are only accepting applications from individuals who live in Denver or plan to actively participate in the Base Denver community.

***The food at this retreat will be kosher certified, and the activities will be Shabbat observant.***

Q&A

Q: Who is this retreat for?
A: For this retreat, we are only accepting applications from individuals who live in the greater Denver Metro Area and have attended two Base events.

Q: How much will this retreat cost me?
A: To ensure the sustainability of this program for future community builders, we charge a non-refundable $60 participation fee for the retreat which includes all meals and accommodations for the weekend. Additionally, there is a $100 refundable deposit to secure your spot on the retreat, which you have the option of donating upon completion of the post-retreat survey. Gas mileage reimbursement for those driving themselves maxes at $30. The participation fee will increase to $80 for those who register less than 30 days before the retreat.

*Accessible Jewish experiences are at the core of Moishe House, so please reach out to retreats@moishehouse.org if these costs pose a barrier to you

Q: I am very active with Moishe House and have attended many Moishe House learning retreats. Does that affect my ability to participate in this retreat?
A: We greatly appreciate the involvement of our community members in our Jewish Learning Retreats. However, in order to broaden our constituent network and give more young adults the opportunity to experience our learning retreats, we are requesting that all retreat participants select two retreats per year to attend. Please refer to our 2024 retreats calendar, linked here, to evaluate which of our retreats you would like to apply for. If you are interested in attending more than two retreats this year, please send an email to retreats@moishehouse.org and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Q: Will this retreat be Shabbat observant?
A: Yes, our retreat will be accommodating the needs of those who observe Shabbat, including Kosher meals, davening and an Eiruv. We will provide the necessary arrangements to ensure a meaningful and respectful Shabbat experience for all participants. Pluralism is a value, so while traditional Shabbat observance will be the norm in public spaces, it is not required in private settings.

Q: Will I be able to get a refund if I decide to cancel my spot at this retreat?
A: Moishe House policy states that refunds of deposits and participation fees will only be provided for participants who cancel at least 30 days prior to the retreat. If you cancel less than 30 days before the retreat, you will not be eligible for a refund.
