Shoal Creek Student Family Connection - Dance Week

Hi Families, here's your "need-to-know" info for your Buya and Crash Students:

1. Want to help our students "double" their money? A "matching" gift has been offered to our students and we need your help getting there! A Shoal Creeker offered a "matching" gift of up to $2000 for whatever we raise at the Shoal Creek Family Valentine's Dance happening THIS Friday, February 12th. 

There are still ways to take advantage of this wonderful matching gift opportunity:

• Donate a gift basket, item, gift card, or service. To get to our traditional $1500 goal, we need about 40 total baskets/items donated. It's NOT too late to donate! Just message Justin personally with a description of your item so that he can copy/paste that description onto a bid sheet. Then, bring your item on Thursday from 2pm-7pm to Shoal Creek, or 5pm-6pm on Friday at Shoal Creek.
• Consider giving a monetary donation to the Dance. Each year we set up a Donations jar by the dessert bar table. Instead of waiting for that, contact Justin Talley and give financially to take advantage of this matching gift offer. Your $100 donation instantly becomes $200 that can go towards supporting the student ministries.
• Help us setup on Thursday Feb 11 from 5:30-7:00pm to make the dance as festive and fun as possible. No one is going to want to stick around if we can't color up the place a bit! Please think about RSVP'ing here to volunteer to help put up the decorations and set out the dance floor and tables. The more we have the sooner we can get it knocked out!
• Invite other families to come with you! Just having more people there will accomplish two goals:  1) having more fun!, and 2) will drive the bidding up! So please think about attending and please think about brining another family with you.

2. Are you a middle school family? Interested in sending your 6th-8th grade student to camp this summer? Then check this video and this website out and message Justin Talley if interested. So far we have about 6-7 Buya students already interested in going. I'd love to get 10-12!

3. Are you a high school family? Have you heard about Young Life yet? If not, please click here to hear about how SC is exploring a relationship with the Young Life teams that exist in the Northland. 

Here's what's available to students and how we communicate to student families weekly.

1. "Buya" program every Sunday at 11am in the Underground for all 6th-8th grade students.
2. "Crash" (9th-12th grade) students can meet in The Attic every Sunday from 10:35am-11am for free breakfast, then attend the 11am service in the Auditorium as a group by sitting in the balcony.
3. Join the "Buya Parents" or the "Crash Parents" City groups if you want weekly info on upcoming events.
