Important VBS Leader Information

Merry VBS Eve! I hope everyone is ready for TOMORROW! Thank you in advance for all that you will do to help make this a great week! Below are several updates to check out:

  • Arrival Times: 8:20am - Preschool Leaders in your rooms, 8:30am - Kids Leaders in the Worship Center

  • Leader Station: There is a booth set-up in the main lobby with important leader information. Please stop by there in the morning to pick-up your Leader Folder.

  • Receipts and Remaining Wal-Mart Gift Card Balances: Please turn in all receipts and any Wal-Mart gift cards at the Leader Station in the main lobby.

  • Kids Recreation & Snack: In the Fellowship Hall

  • VBS Parking: The City of Cookeville and Rogers Group will allow us to the main parking lot on Stevens Street for VBS. However, we will need to use a special route to enter and exit that parking lot. The map below shows all of those details. This is the parking lot that VBS Leaders will need to use as well for the week.

  • Pick-Up Procedure: This year we will be implementing a new pick-up procedure to provide another level of safety for all of the Kids at VBS.

    • Instead of parents entering the Worship Center and finding their way to the correct grade to sign-out their child, they will be approved in the lobby so they do not have to enter the Worship Center.

    • Parents/Guardians will receive a special “Yellow Pick-Up” tag like they have the last few years. They will spot by a table in the lobby and their child’s name will be called over the sound system in the Worship Center. Once a child’s name is called they will head to either the “Red Door” or the “Green Door” to meet their parents/guardians.

    • A map of this new procedure is linked below.

    • Preschool kids will still be picked up at their classroom.

    • For grade level leaders, here is the preferred process for pick-up:

      • Have your kids remain in their seats.

      • When their name is called, they will give you their name tag.

      • Please place a “check-mark” or an indication on your attendance sheet that the child has been picked up.

      • If you have children at VBS, we ask that you not leave your grade row/section until the majority of kids have been picked-up (probably around 12:10pm).

      • When you pick up your child, simply have their leader check-off your child.

    • This is a new process that will need tweaks throughout the week. Thank you for helping make safety important!
