Crocodile Dock was a ton of fun!

Crocodile Dock (our Vacation Bible School for 2009) was a great week. By the numbers:

• 140 kids registered
• 120 average daily attendance
• 60+ shoeboxes packed for Operation Christmas Child
• 40+ volunteers

We are so amazed and awed by all that has happened this week. Many, many thanks to all who generously gave their time, talents, items, and other support to make this happen!

Crocodile Dock starts TOMORROW!

Preparations for "Crocodile Dock" (our 2009 VBS) are almost done - welcome to the swamp!



There's a swamp shack in the sanctuary...

...a bait shop in the Sunday School wing...

...and critters all over the place!





And in less than 16 hours, there will be over 80 kids from preschool to grade 6 (and a mighty host of volunteers) all over the place - it should be lots of fun! Online registrations are closed now, but everyone is still welcome - register when you show up, even if you can't make it for Monday morning. See you in the bayou!
