Hi Friends, We are only 2 weeks away from the start of the Spring Cohort. Go ahead and introduce yourself here and tell us where you are from!

Hello! I know we are full steam ahead to Easter, but one way we can avoid the summer planning burnout is by starting small and starting early. SO...what is on your to-do list this week? Our team has a meeting on the calendar for next week, but right now I am in the beginning phases of planning a Summer home discipleship curriculum to go along with our Kids Camp!

We use Planning Center and name tags, check-in, etc. works great for check-in. But, tactically, how do folks do their "check outs" of each classroom when parents come to pick up? We have 4 classrooms and parents come for pick up before the service ends right before communion (so parents are trying to quickly pick up the kids to get everyone back into the service). We are a smaller church so our volunteers rotate weekly (most of the time serving ~once a month). Do you have parents show their sticker? Do you have kids line up and call them only after sticker identification? Do they turn them in? Very curious about how to make our checkout process of each classroom efficient but also appropriately safe.
