Comfortable and very casual. With the family cookout on the football field, we will have cornhole, games, and activities for the students before our time of worship and celebration begins. There will be tables and chairs on the field for those who prefer not to sit on the ground and seating in the stands. Feel free to bring your favorite picnic blanket or lawn chair for a front row seat on the field.
There are numerous opportunities to serve in advance, during setup, and after the event. Please contact Event Chair Shelby McCollister to be included in volunteer communications regarding the event and learn how you can help.
