Water Day: Each August we hold a water day for preschool and elementary kids to celebrate summer before school begins. This day is held during our regular Sunday morning service, and the kids get to go through multiple water stations before enjoying popsicles at the end.
Step-up Day: Each year right around Labor Day we hold our official step-up Sunday where kids entering certain grade levels move up to a new class. Kids entering 6th grade will then move up to the Youth Group.
AWANA: Starting around Labor Day week and going until April, we have AWANA every Wednesday evening from 6:30-8pm for children from birth-5th grade with a youth group program as well. This weekly event is free for all families, and more volunteers are always needed.
