Use Your Gifts this Fall!

From Amy Fitzgerald – fall festival

The harvest is plentiful…. looking for the laborers!  Cool weather, pumpkins, and the annual CBC Harvest Festival is upon us and we need your help.  Do you have a desire to serve just not sure where?  Do you want to serve and just run out of time?

Then the Harvest Festival might just be the great opportunity you have been looking for!

We are searching for people excited to share the love of Christ and have fun to help us man the new and improved games during the annual festival.

If you have a couple of hours to give and would like to help the game committee during the Harvest Festival then please contact Amy Fitzgerald (f18fitz@hotmail.com) for more information.

Drivers Ed Class Offered at CBC

Do you need Drivers Ed? In South Carolina you must take an approved Drivers Education class in order to get a drivers license under the age of 17.
I have spoken with Mr. Valentine of Valentine Driving School and he is willing to do a class for us homeschoolers on Friday, October 17 at CBC. The class will be from 8-3 and cover the classroom portion of the program. He will schedule the driving days with each student that day for another time that is convenient for each student.
The total cost of the class is $225. If enough people sign up he may lower the price. We need at least 4 students to make the class.
You do not have to have a permit to take the class. He does recommend if the student is 14 that they are close to their birthday so they will not forget the information. You must have a permit to do the driving portion. If the student has just gotten their permit then he schedules the driving portion a little closer to the driving test day.
Please let me know by September 26 if you are interested. You can email or text or call me.

Fit Kids

From Tracy –

Hey everyone,fit kids logo
We had a great time at Fit Kids last week! Our group goal is to travel a total combined distance of 2,903 miles. This is the distance from CBC to the Pacific Ocean. We have a group goal to help encourage everyone to excersise outside of just Wednesday mornings at Fit Kids. There is a small form that was sent home with each child, there are extras outside of Evelyn’s office, that can be used to log the miles. Please turn these forms back in at each Fit Kids Wednesday so that the totals can be added up and tracked to see how fast we can reach our goal. If the goal is met there will be a special surprise at the end of the year!

The kids will also have individual goals. Once they meet or exceed these goals they will be awarded the Fit Kid Award at the end of the year. The individual goals are divided into two components and both must be met to achieve the Fit Kid Award which is optional. There is a running/walking component as well as an excersise component. The excersise component includes push-ups, curl-ups, v-sit reach, jumping jacks or jumping rope.

Here are the benchmarks that need to be reached to attain the Fit Kid Award.

Any questions let me know.
