Any adult who came to YPGA, NACPYF, and/or CPYC as a student participant, adult participant or staff, or someone who just loves and supports CPYC!
We will be doing a lot of things!
We will gather together for a reception after check-in (5-6PM) starting at 6PM, then move over to a nice dinner provided by Bethel. Then we will move over in the event to gather for our opening celebration that will include music, stories, and more. That evening we will have numerous activities for folks to join in on the fun.
On Saturday we will start with breakfast, then move over to our morning assembly with more music and fun, with activities to follow. We will eat one more time together and then close our time with worship.
During the celebration we will have a silent auction where the proceeds will go to build up our Alumni Association. You’ll have an opportunity to check out our CPYC exhibit that will have pictures, videos, and more. We will formal and informal times to hang out with old friends, meet new ones, and celebrate together.
We have a limited number of beds/rooms available on campus for folks to stay the evening so when you register please indicate if you will need a room to stay in that night.

Welcome all CPYC Alumni!!!
For almost 100 years CPYC (formerly YPGA/NACPYF) has offered young people in the CPC & CPCA the opportunity to gather and deepen their faith in Jesus Christ, love for the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, and create a space for Faith, Fun, and Fellowship.
We are excited to formally begin our CPYC Alumni Association. It is our hope that this association will continue deepening the connections established through our love of CPYC as well as provide for the sustainability of CPYC long into the future.
CPYC Alumni Association is for all who came to CPYC as a youth or as an adult staff throughout the years.
Membership in the AA will provide funding for the future of CPYC as well as provide an opportunity to build an active alumni group. Future events include a proposed 100 year celebration in 2023, issuing a table book on the history of CPYC, and creating an alumni mentoring program. Exclusive CPYC Alumni merchandise including a free gift for your membership into CPYC Alumni Association will be available soon!
We will also be creating exclusive CPYC Alumni merchandise including a free gift for your membership into the CPYC Alumni Association.
We have three CPYC Alumni Association membership levels:
1 year-$50
5 year-$250
Lifetime-$500
These funds will be allocated to three CPYC funds (Operating Budget including CPYC Alumni Board/CPYC Endowments/CPYC Scholarships).
We invite you to join us now by filling out the form and building up our Alumni Association today!
