Parent Meeting Recap

Hi Parents —

It was so encouraging seeing so many of you at the parent meeting. Here are some things we went over:

Parent Meeting Info

Packing List and Travel Information

This parent information packet is full of travel information, best medical practices, and guidelines for students while they are on the trip. Please look through this packet with your student!

Allergies

We are working with the Rawlings Center (our facility in the DR) to do our best to accommodate students with food allergies. We cannot promise that all preferences for food and meals can be accommodated. If you student has a food allergy, we will prioritize their food needs. Please be patient and flexible with us, and if you have any hesitations about food, please plan to pack food in your student’s checked luggage.

Dress Code

Our ministry partners have asked us to follow a strict dress code in order to best serve and love the pastors and leaders in the DR. Here are a few ground rules:

  • NO tank tops (all shirts must have sleeves).

  • NO short-shorts (no nike, lululemon, or free people athletic shorts. Also, please no athletic skorts. If you need help, please look for shorts that are 5 inch inseam or longer).

  • NO leggings or biker shorts - no tight pants allowed please

  • PANTS may be required at some of your student’s ministry sites. Students should pack multiple pairs of pants for this trip.

  • COLOR OF THE DAY: Students will wear tshirts that match the themes for our VBS each day. The colors are black, red, white, green, and yellow.
