the youth group

Since we are a small church, we have a small youth group.  However, we are always looking to reach out to new youth in the community.  For the most part, the youth group tries to do some type of small inexpensive activity to enjoy themselves every other month or so. 

Roller-skating, bowling, and putt-putt are examples of activities that might take place on a weeknight or a weekend. 

The biggest activity of the year for the youth group though is Youth Day.  This occurs once a year at CGC.  Rick & Darlene Minshew are in charge of our youth group.  They do an excellent job at getting prepared for the big day. 

On Youth Day, which is always a Saturday, the church is opened up for fun activities for the youth and adults.  It's like a small carnival for free to the public.  We make hotdogs, buy chips and drinks and serve everyone halfway through the day.  There are games in different rooms of the church, a cake walk, face painting, a clown, and all activities win a prize.  Several times throughout the day, the praise band also performs.  It is a great day of indoor and outdoor fun!!
