Wednesday Night Awana Clubs
AWANA Information
2017-2018
Awana Clubs meet Wednesday nights from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM from September 27th through April 25th this school year. There are three clubs in our Awana program: Cubbies for ages 3 & 4; Sparks for age 5 through 2nd grade; and Truth and Training or T & T for grades 3-6.
Clubbers will receive a handout the last Wednesday of the current month with information about special nights for participation and club events for the next month.
There are no club meetings just before Thanksgiving, and during Christmas and spring breaks. These are the dates when there will be no club this year: November 22nd, December 27th, January 3rd, and April 4th. Our annual Carol-A-Rama at the nursing home (Marquette County Medical Care Facility) is scheduled for Monday, December 18th (change of night). That will be the last club before Christmas break. The last event of the Awana year will be the Awards Night and Fun Fair on April 25th.
Cancellation of Awana: If school in the NICE district is cancelled due to weather, there is no Awana. If there is significant snowfall during a Wednesday that hasn’t canceled school and makes travel hazardous, club will be cancelled since many drive from a distance. You may be contacted by phone call, email, and/ or text message. Cancellation announcements are also broadcast on radio station WHWL (95.7 FM, whwl.net).
Dues:
$0.50 per night or $12.00 for the year [10 extra AWANA Shares if paid by Nov. 1st]
AWANA Shares:
Clubbers accumulate Awana Shares all year long for such things as attendance, paying dues, bringing their Bible and handbook, wearing their uniforms, and passing sections in their handbooks. Special activities will be awarded Awana Shares throughout the year.
Clubbers need to check in at the registration table each Wednesday night in order to receive their Awana Shares for attendance, dues, uniform and Bible and/or handbook. By having those things each Wednesday, clubbers can receive up to 4 Awana Shares.
These Awana Shares are used like money for purchasing items from the AWANA Store on December 6th. The last night of club, April 25, 2018, is a family night with an awards presentation and a carnival type fair. Awana Shares may be used for playing games, purchasing items from the Awana Store or may be shared with a visitor or sibling that a clubber might bring to the fair that night.

Vacation Bible School– June 2018
Camp Moose on the Loose–Discovering God’s Forever Forgiveness
Students will experience a camping theme where they hike, canoe, and fish — complete with tents, campfires, and wildlife. Through the lessons, kids will learn about the life of Christ as seen through the eyes of Peter, and will discover the lasting forgiveness that only Christ can give.
“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins” (1 John 1:9).
