Pinewood Derby

On March 17 over 60 boys and girls and their families watched while their pinewood derby cars raced down the track. There were many fast cars that raced that night, separated only by fractions of a second. The top four places for each age group for Pioneer Girls and Stockade were recognized with great trophies. The top designers for each group were also recognized with a special award. All racers received a ribbon for their participation. At the end of the night the top boy racer faced off against the top girl racer and the girls won! The top place finishers will be racing in a regional race at the Chapel in Akron. Let's Go PHBC boys! Thanks to our crew who set up the track, checked in the cars, helped fix the breakdowns, raced the cars, judged the finishes and selected the top designs. Without all of you the night would not have been possible.

Pioneer Voyagers' Overnight Event

The Pioneer Voyagers had an overnight event Friday, February 12. They worked on a My Friends', Puzzle and Cooking badges and enjoyed making their own breakfast. Fourteen girls were in attendance, as well as their group leaders. All had a wonderful time!

Friends make friends laugh, sometimes with a funny face.

...more fun with our friends and their faces!

Do unto others...treat others how you want to be treated...

We have fun with our friends when we play games!

Why we love church - fellowship and food! The girls made rice cakes with either frosting and "doo-dads" or cream cheese.

Pancakes made from scratch!

These ladybugs are too cute to eat!

Enjoying their hard work.

Wednesday Night Pioneer Girls

This place was buzzing on Wednesday night, as we found our Pioneer Girl Groups learning together and reaching out in service to others. Our younger groups were connecting with God and one another through various activities. The Trailblazers had invited some of our Senior ladies to partner with them in a service project. They spent the evening decorating cookies and making Valentine cards to be sent to those serving our country overseas. Our Junior Guides along with their leaders put their learning into action as they became our teachers for the evening in one of the pre-school classes. Girls, come joins us on Wednesday nights from 7:00-8:30.

Children's Worker Breakfast

Last Saturday, 95 of our children workers gathered together to enjoy a tremendous breakfast, learn about each other and participate in a live game of Clue. As our groups moved from the “study” to the “conservatory” to the “kitchen” and other rooms, they got to meet all of the Clue characters, Colonel Mustard, Professor Plum, Miss Scarlet, Mrs. White, Mrs. Peacock, and Mr. Green. After brainstorming about the clues to connect effectively with kids, each age group formulated a plan to help show kids that KIDS MATTER. We pray that each of us will do our part to help children find and follow Jesus Christ.

Crazy Olympics

It’s the adults vs. the teens. The adults line up to decide who will start at each activity.

Each person had to put on five articles of clothing. Accessories are always so important for a good fashion look.

Picking up marbles can be a challenge, but in ice water? Using your toes?

Whipped cream tastes good, unless it’s still frozen. It made it hard to find the Skittle hidden in the whipped cream (which was also frozen).

Who should we choose to fit the most marshmallows in their mouth?

Yuck! And he wasn’t even the winner!

Churchtime Snowball Fight

Snowball fights can be fun. Rather than getting cold and wet outdoors, the children in grades 1-4 battled indoors on December 27.

The girls' team and boys' team each prepared their arsenal by crumbling sheets of newspaper into compact “snowballs”.

The teams form their plan of attack.

The leaders keep a watchful eye as the “snowballs” fly.
