G8 CLUB FACTS 

• WHAT:  G8 is an eight week family ministry program that includes rotational activities set as stations each week.  Kids spend the afternoon with their friends participating in different activities and getting to know one another.  There are opportunities for parents to participate in the program with their children, as well as have “adult time” with other moms and dads. 
• WHO:  The G8 Club is for children, PreK through grade 5, and parents who want a fun interactive program that meets everyone’s needs.  Although children do not need a parent in attendance, we invite all parents to stay and participate in activities designed especially for you and your child.
• WHEN:  G8 occurs every Wednesday during September and October from 3-5:30pm beginning September 7. 
• WHERE: St. Peter’s UMC     Family Life Center (Gym)
• DINNER:  Join us for dinner at 5:30 in the Fellowship Hall following the G8 Club activities.  Dinner is for $5 per person or $20 per family.  Eight week prepaid dinner passes are available $4/person or $15/family. There is a 6pm second dinner seating option.  

Here is a quick look at G8 CLUB Stations

• Homework Help:  School is mportant! We want to ensure that children are able to participate fully in G8 activities without having to worry about doing homework when they get home.  This station will have the guidance of an adult who can assist with homework questions.
• Galvanizing Games:  Who doesn’t love a good game? Every child has the opportunity to play fun interactive games with their peers and parents too!
• Made Modern:  Not everyone is artistic, however every child can create expressive art projects with our step by step instructions.  Our craft station is inspired by Mid-Century Modern Design based on Todd Oldham’s book KID MADE MODERN. The 8 projects are fun, stimulating and unique.
• Chat & Chew Cafes: We all get hungry for a good snack.   The Chat & Chew Café is a great place for the kids to refuel and interact with one another through conversation.  Parents also need a little time to build friendships so we have set up a Chat & Chew Café for you too, where no children are allowed!  We encourage you to stay and enjoy the company of other parents.
• Concoctions & Contraptions: Science should be fun.  During this station, children will learn how to make exciting and sometimes wacky projects that will provide entertainment later.
• Exhilarating Exercise:  Physical fitness is good for all ages.  That’s why we have included a parent- child exercise class in our rotation.  Join your child in light and easy exercise activities that will help instill healthy habits.
