Kidnap retreat: Pitfalls and problems

  • Try to avoid having a closed group of friends. This is somewhat difficult to control, but it will help if the public event is not something that is likely to appeal to only a subset of the potential group. Calling specific youths and cajoling them into signing up is worth the effort for something of this sort.
  • Again be alert to youth that really don't want to be there. They can be a problem. If it can't be helped, at least acknowledge the validity of their pique and apologize. Then try to help them be included and feel important to the retreat.
  • Make it clear that this was a one time event and not something they can expect again. Being tricked one time only can be viewed as funny by most youth.
