345Tween & 6Plus Impact! Join us at Highland Orchards for a fun Fall afternoon! Activities include pick-your-own, apple cannons, a corn maze option, and of course, tasty treats from the bakery! Cost of entry is $3, plus whatever activities you choose to participate in. We will meet at Highland Orchards at 1 pm. Parents of youth group age children (3rd-12th grade) are welcome to attend, but are also welcome to drop off/pick up their children. If families with younger children would like to attend, they are welcome! But we ask that those with younger children please stay for the entire event.
Please note, transportation to and from Highland Orchards will NOT be provided. This event will be in lieu of our Sunday evening Youth Night.
General
All children are welcome: any in second grade or younger will need to have at least one parent or guardian with them; third grade and above will be with their Youth Group (345 or IMPACT (6th+)); adults are welcome to join
The plan for both youth groups will be to do the corn maze and apple cannons. Because both crowd and fun will impact timing on these activities, we won’t assume anything further.
Each child and volunteer should bring $12 for the corn maze and $10 for apple cannon (can be shared with 2 people)
Consider additional money for additional apple cannon apples, Farm Market, etc.
It is likely to be hot and sunny with limited shade at the Maze, so plan accordingly with hats, sunscreen, bug spray, water bottle possibly pants if worried about ticks
