Hello Awana Parents and Families!
We are excited to return for another year of club. Awana runs on Wednesday nights from 6:30-8:15pm, September through May. We have a limited number of spots to maintain a safe and effective leader to child ratio, which allows for better discipleship between the leaders and the kids.
If the age that you want to sign up for is full, register under the wait list! We will contact you in the order of registration if spots open up. Or, if you are interested in becoming a weekly leader too, your kids can join the club. We ask that our leaders be involved in a Bible study or church/worship service, as well as growing spiritually and aiming to become more like Christ. If you're interested in this, email us at ccbcawanaclubs@gmail.com.
New to Awana? It is a program that helps churches and parents work together to develop spiritually strong children and teens who faithfully follow Jesus Christ. Our weekly program is organized with the purpose of instilling moral and spiritual lessons. Each night consists of:
Still not sure if Awana is for you? Ask an Awana parent. They will most likely tell you that they didn’t think they could fit Awana into their already jam-packed schedule, but the passion and growth they see in their kids gives them a reason to make time for Club. That is why Awana kids (and parents) come back, year after year.
The cost for Awana for the year is a flat rate of $50/child, maximum of $120/household. This includes your child's book, awards, uniform, bag, and club dues. Visit the "Additional Information" at the bottom of this page (below the map) for a Q&A about the price!
This year we plan to have the following Clubs:

Thank you!

Q&A
In reviewing our payment process, we found charging for
individual items separately to be confusing and created extra administrative
work for our Awana families and our secretary. We believe that a flat fee will
make it easier to plan for club, and quicker to get through opening night
check-in.
While it’s true that in a particular year a clubber may not need
a uniform or book, keep in mind the other costs we did NOT include
in the calculation of the yearly fee (ie. Awana Games equipment, Awana Club registration cost, small and
large group lesson guides, Awana Store, candy and prizes,
year end Awards Night, popcorn/ice cream nights, Christmas goodie gift bags, and more). When taken as a
whole the cost per child to run Awana every year exceeds the $50 rate. We think
this makes the yearly flat fee the best option for us and for you!
Our club secretary took the cost of a uniform and bag for each
club level as well as a book and awards for every year in Awana (a total of
$1,020 from Puggles-Journey) and divided that by the number of Awana years to
determine the yearly fee, and then subtracted $10 to get to our new $50 price point, as not every child will come week to week or earn all of the possible awards. Maximum of $120/household.
The $50 flat fee will cover a book, and any awards/patches/jewels for each year as well as a
uniform and a bag for each club level.
The fee does NOT cover any uniform or bag outside of the one
given their first year in a new club (ie. If your Sparky has a growth spurt and
needs a new vest in 2nd grade, you will be charged the cost of the new vest. Or
if your Trek Clubber loses their bag, you will be charged if you want a
replacement).
The fee does not cover more than one of each handbook or bible
study. If a book is lost or damaged, you can order a new one for the cost of
replacement.
Additionally, we did not include any extra credit or review books
in the cost as not every child makes it that far in a year. If your child
completes a book and needs an extra credit review book, that will also charged
when earned.
We would still ask that the $50 be paid. Remember that this is an
averaged cost. Even if think you’re paying more than what you’re getting in
supplies for a certain year, the next year you will probably pay much less than
what you’re getting in supplies. This will also help you to plan and budget for each annual cost.
As mentioned above, the $50 cost covers the uniform, book, bag,
and awards for your child. If your child has earned any of these (typically
after a couple of weeks) and taken them home, it is a flat cost to the Awana
Club, and therefore would remain unchanged whether in the club for a month or a
year.
If needed, you can make arrangements with our Club Secretary to
determine the best payment plan for you. If we have your email address, we can
send automatic reminders and billing through Square.
However, keep in mind that awards will not be given if a child’s
fee is not paid by Awards Night (unless previous arrangements were made).
We do not want fees to become a barrier for your family. If
needed, let us know how much you are able to pay, and we may be able to waive
some of the fees.
