WAVE Update 6/28

 
WAVE UPDATE
"Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good; sing to his name, for it is pleasant!" 
Psalm 135:3
 
Here's what's coming up in WAVE: 
 
1.  July is here and WAVE has two exciting trips coming up for our students! 
On July 19-20, the Sr. High will be going down to Ship Island.  All signup and payments are due by Sunday, July 14.  A postcard will be sent to your student in the mail with all details and information.  There is also info in the WAVE game room. 
On July 26-28, the Jr. High will have their very own "mini Escape."  This is our own spin-off from the Great Escape last year.  We will be staying out at Lake Cavalier and will be going out to Twin Lakes on Saturday for the Ropes Course, horseback riding, and more!  Don't miss out!  All signup and payment deadlines are due by Sunday, July 21.  A postcard will be sent to your student in the mail with all details and information.  There is also info in the WAVE game room. 
If you have any other questions about these exciting trips, please let me know! 
 
2.  DRIVERS STILL NEEDED!  I have yet to hear back from anyone about helping out with the Mississippi Braves Game on Wednesday, July 10 from 6:00-10:00pm!  Your ticket will be covered by WAVE.  If you are available to help out, please let me know!  This will be a fun/hot/humid event!  I need two extra drivers for this event! 
 
3.  Lastly, WAVE will NOT meet this Sunday due to the Church-wide Picnic at the Self's House.  We hope to see you there!  Picnic starts at 5:00pm and Ultimate Frisbee will be played. 
 
You all will be getting the July Calendar next week in the mail and over email as well in the WAVE Update.  If you need anything, just give me a call!  Hope everyone has a great weekend!  See you Sunday.

WAVE Update 6/21

 
WAVE UPDATE
Greetings WAVE Parents!  Hope you are looking forward to the weekend!  Here is the latest WAVE news for you to be in the know: 
 
1.  Don't miss out tomorrow night with our next Movie and Game Night: Part 6 from 5:00-11:00pm!  These events are always fun!  Meet at the church, dinner provided.  We will be playing Capture the Flag, a new game called Landmine, Sardines, watching a movie, and more!  Tell your student to invite friends!  Be sure to bring outdoorsy clothes and good running shoes because we will be active for sure!  Hope to see everyone there. 
 
2.  Secondly, due to the Rafting Trip expenses and my summer Hebrew class starting next Monday, the Sr. High Beach Trip to Pensacola has been cancelled.  HOWEVER, before anyone gets upset, we will still be going to the beach!  On July 19-20, the Sr. High will be going to Ship Island off the coast of Mississippi in the Gulfport/Biloxi area.  We will be leaving on Friday afternoon and will return late Saturday night.  I needed to shorten the trip a day for class attendance issues - so I had to push things back.  I hope this alternative will still be exciting for your student!  If you have never been to Ship Island, it is an extremely cool and relaxing place.  Cost will be $200 a person if your student helped out with 1 fundraiser/base price and $150 if your student helped with 2-3 fundraisers.  Students will also need an additional $100 for meals, souvenirs, etc.  More details will be discussed as we get closer to sign up and payment deadline.  Signup and payment deadlines for this trip will be on Sunday, July 14.  Be sure to tell your student to sign up and invite friends!  If you have any other questions, please let me know!  I will be making the announcement this Sunday night at WAVE to our students as well. 
 
3.  DRIVERS NEEDED:  On Wednesday, July 10, WAVE will be going to a Mississippi Braves Game.  I will need 2 drivers to help with this event.  Your ticket will be paid for as compensation for helping!  Please email me back and let me know if you can help for this event!  Hours for this event are from 6:00-10:00pm. 
 
4.  Lastly, WAVE will be cancelled on Sunday, June 30 due to the Church-wide picnic at the Self's house starting at 5:00pm.  Let's all plan on attending this fun event with our church family! 
 
If there are any other questions about anything, don't hesitate to email me or give me a call!  I look forward to seeing your student tomorrow night!

Rafting Trip Deadline

WAVE Parents -
 
The Rafting Trip will be here before we know it!  NEXT WEEK actually.  There aren't that many students signed up for this exciting trip.  If your student would like to go, here's what you need to do: 
 
1.  Sign up in the youth rooms or text Seth verifying that you will be attending this trip. 
 
2.  Make all trip payments by this Sunday, June 9 by 7:30pm.  Wildwater must have all payments in by Monday, June 10.  If a student asks to go after the 9th, they will not be able to go.  Base Cost is $300 or if your student helped with 1 of the 3 fundraisers this Spring.  It is $250 if your student helped with 2 or 3 fundraisers this Spring.  Attached to this email is the list of fundraisers and students that helped with each fundraiser.  Please look at this list so you will know what to pay. 
 
3.  Attend the Rafting Trip meeting on Sunday, June 9 at 7:30pm for all trip scheduling and details.  This can be attended by students only if you would like.
