We will all meet at the church at 10am on Monday. The trip is about 2.5 hours. Kids will need money for lunch on both Monday and Thursday. We will return to church around 2-2:30 on Thursday. We will text you when we can give an accurate time.
Parents give the McDonalds money to Lacy for safe keeping and make sure we have a phone # that you can be reached at on Thursday in case we are running early or late. Kids do not need any spending money.
Bible Sleeping Bag or bedding - Pillow Toothpaste, toothbrush - Tennis Shoes and shower shoes Casual clothes Swimsuit (please keep modesty in mind) - Towels, washcloths, shampoo and soap - Plastic bags for dirty and wet clothes- Flashlight Sunscreen and Insect repellent - Prescription medication in original package with a signed note to be given to nurse at registration
If you send a sleeping bag, it helps to have a fitted sheet to cover the old mattresses. Remind your children not to share hair accessories like hairbrushes or pony tail holders. They screen for lice very thoroughly, but it is best to be safe.
