The week ahead

Alrighty, I have a few details to lay out on a couple of the things coming up here within the next week.  If you have a 7th or 8th grader, remember tomorrow (Tuesday) we will be leaving from the building at 11:30am to head over to the Bowers park for lunch (bring their own).  

Camping - Tuesday Night
We are going to push the leave time for camping to 4:00pm.  

They should bring: 
Sleeping bag
tent (if they dont have one, no worries, we should have plenty)
flashlight
bug spray

I will have hot dogs, chips, drinks, smores and breakfast bars/fruit.  If they so desire to consume other foods or snacks, they should bring their own. We will plan to be back at the building at 9:00am on Wednesday morning.

Chuy’s and Airwalk
The plan is to leave the building at 4:00pm on Thursday and head to Chuy’s to eat.  After talking with the airwalk people it appears that you are going to have to each individually sign waivers and purchase tickets online since I can not tell them a firm number of people we will have.  This is to ensure that there are enough spots in the arena.  Once it fills up for a particular time slot, they cant let anyone in.  So, I would suggest if your teen desires to go, that you go ahead and do this ASAP.  Click HERE to go to the website and begin the process.  WARNING: This is a hassle. You are probably going to want to pony up to an actual computer and not try to attempt this on a cellular device.  I can already tell you we will probably not be returning to this place just by the high amount of hoops and hassle that is required to enter the building with a group. What you will need to know before embarking on this internet gauntlet known as signing your kid up to jump on a trampoline is:

First you will go through the waiver process
When you head over to the ticket process you'll need to make sure that Thursday, July 10 is the date to click on.
6:30 is the time slot to sign-up for.
You can either sign up for a 1 hour time slot or 1-1/2 hour slot.  My experience with these places is that 2 hours is too much.  If your teen only wants to do an hour, they can sit with me off to the side in recovery.

If any of you would like to join us, you are more than welcome.  I want to apologize in advance for putting you through this.  This place is like Lock-in’s, its only happening because I have caved to the pressure of asking teenagers.  I am weak but fool me once...

GOOD LUCK!

11th and 12th Grade Lunch outing

This Friday, meet at the building at 11:30, bring a lunch

All Sons and Daughter Concert
The Concert is free but we will grab a fast food bite to eat before hand.
Leaving the building at 3:30pm

Again, you guys are welcome to jump on board if you would like.  Should be a great night of worship.
