WHAT TO EXPECT FROM AWANA KICK-OFF
Sunday, September 21 | 5:00-6:00pm
We kick-off the 2025-26 Awana year on September 21 with a special night planned to introduce kids (first-timers and returners) and their parents to the Awana program. We’ll start the evening off by making sure every kid has what he/she need for the year. The books and uniforms that were ordered during registration will be packed up into easy-to-grab bags, along with a copy of the year’s calendar and a parent letter. Kids AND parents will gather in the auditorium for pledges, announcements, and songs. You’ll get a glimpse of what your kiddos will do to begin Awana every week.
After the opening, kids will be off to complete an abbreviated version of a regular night at Awana. They’ll travel with their teams to game time and handbook time, where their leaders will give them the rundown of what to expect each Sunday. While they do that, parents are strongly encouraged to remain in the auditorium for a parent orientation. There, the Awana Commander and other leaders will discuss the year, details of the calendar, and what being a parent of an Awana clubber entails. This will be a very important, informative meeting that you do not want to miss, and there will be a time for questions at the end.
We’ll wrap it up with treats for everyone--I even heard rumors of a cotton candy and popsicles! We hope you’ll join us. For more information, visit our website. It’s going to be a GREAT year!
