Our Check-in Team welcomes kids and families, gives high fives, and helps parents if they have any questions as they arrive in Central Kids. They ensure that the check-in stations are up and running smoothly. After check-in, our check-in team helps with one of the classrooms that needs the most help based on numbers.

Our Forest Team leads our 4-5 year olds in the lesson for the week (you do NOT have to write or prepare anything for the lesson). When volunteers arrive in the classroom, the team will meet for a quick huddle prior to children arriving. This meeting will serve to give an overview of the lesson and delegate tasks (leading certain activities, handing out supplies, bathroom breaks, clean up, check in).

Our Treehouse Team leads our Kindergarten through 3rd grade in a mini-service You do NOT have to write or prepare anything for the lesson. Most everything will be prepared for you before you arrive to serve. Within the Treehouse there are storytellers, assistants, and small group leaders. When volunteers arrive in the classroom, the team will meet for a quick huddle prior to children arriving. This meeting will serve to give an overview of the lesson and delegate tasks (who is telling the story, who is leading a small group, who will hand out supplies, how will bathroom breaks go, who will handle check in, what needs to be set up or cleaned up).

A Team Lead is a volunteer who ensures a safe and smooth service for Central Kids. The Team Lead oversees logistics, follows protocol, supports volunteers, and makes Sunday mornings a special place where all volunteers, staff, and kids feel prepared for, cared for, seen, and heard.
