Cost: $25 per child or $50 per family Entering Kindergarten to 4th Grade Entering 5th & 6th Grade – Be a part of your own special group – Student Caboose VBS Week At Rocky Railway, kids discover that Jesus' power can pull them through anything! Kids participate in memorable Bible-learning activities, sing catchy songs, play teamwork-building games, experience one-of-a-kind Bible adventures and collect Bible Memory Buddies to remind them of God’s love. Plus, kids will learn to look for evidence of God all around them through something called God Sightings. We begin on Monday, June 8 and continue until Friday, June 12, 2019 from 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. Drop off time will be from 8:45-9:00 a.m. With all the activities each day, please make sure your child wears comfortable clothes and closed toe shoes. Each child will receive a VBS T-shirt while supplies last. Music CDs will be available upon request for an additional donation of $7.00. VBS Snacks With the growing concern of allergies and amount that is offered, we ask each parent to send a snack for your child daily in the amounts they need. The group crew leader will collect them at the opening session and keep them until snack time. Please send in a closed bag labeled with your child's name. We will have a designated snack area if your child has a peanut allergy. St. John's will provide water daily. Closing Each day concludes with Rocky Wrap Up, a celebration that gets everyone involved in living what they’ve learned. Family members and friends are encouraged to join in daily for this special time at 11:50 a.m. General pick up is at 12:00 p.m. No child will be released to siblings unless they are listed on the registration form and are over the age of 18. In addition, no child will be released to an adult without their pickup card unless they are listed on the registration form and have proper ID or notified by the parent prior to pick up. |
