NEW YEARS THROWN DOWN LOCK OUT!!


Believe it or not, it's time to welcome another new year! (Assuming we all make it past Dec. 21.  Makes me wonder...are the doomsday believers just not doing any Christmas shopping? MAN, they're gonna feel silly on the 22nd..)

ANYWAY, we're gonna do things a little differently this year and I'm REALLY excited about it!

We're joining forces with Southside and Bentonville for a LOCK-OUT!!  It's gonna be a great night, and what's even better is the fact that we're offering 2 options.  One for the folks that wanna welcome the new year and then call it a night, and one for the folks who ain't goin' down till the sun comes up!  Both are totally fine and everybody can choose their own option without effecting the rest of the group's price or options.

Ok, so here are the options:

The "DONE AT 1" package: $10
This is for the folks that wanna have a blast and be with their friends to welcome the new year, but who also value their sleep very much! We will meet at church at 10:00, do our own thing as a group until 11:00.  We will then go in the bus to the Rogers Bowling Center and bowl until 1:00.  We will, of course, count down the new year there.  We will then come back to the church building to let those in this package meet their parents and go on home.

The "UP ALL NIGHT" package: $20
This is for those who are gonna keep the party goin' as long as they can!  Those in this package will go on from the church, after the dropping off the "Done at 1"ers, to Lokomotion for unlimited access to laser tag, go-karts, mini golf, more until 4:00.  We will then travel to the Bella Vista movie theater for a 4:30 movie.  When that ends at about 6:00, we will return to the building for everybody to be picked up at about 6:30.

SO...take your pick!!  There are two sign up sheets on one page on the board at the end of the hall.

So here's the at-a-glance rundown..

WHO?  All RAVE teens, friends, and family, joined by other folks from Southside and Bentonville
WHAT?  A New Years BASH with good clean fun, and solid Christian friends
WHEN?   Um..New Year's Eve
WHERE?  Various locations (see above), we will start and end at Robinson Ave.
WHAT DO I BRING?  Be sure and bring socks for the bowling, warm jacket/clothes for Lokomotion, and the cost of your chosen package ($10 or $20), plus any snack money that you would like to bring.  NOTE: The cost for food at the movies will be GREATLY reduced.

254L: Clothe the Naked!!













ANOTHER CHANCE TO SERVE!!

This Saturday is the annual Robinson Avenue Clothing Giveaway!!
December is also our month to focus on those in need of clothing, so it works out perfectly!! I've spoken to those in charge of the giveaway and we have jobs worked out for the teens to tackle, so all they have to do is show up!  (I should clarify, they've already worked hard preparing for this, while raising money for the thirsty at the same time!! These teens are amazing..)

So here's the skinny!!

WHO?  ALL RAVE TEENS
WHAT?  Giving away TONS of clothing to those in our area who really need it
WHEN?  This Saturday, Dec. 8, from 7:30 AM to 11:30 AM (The official start and end times are 8 and 11.  This is a little early and late to prepare and clean up!)
WHERE?   Robinson Ave Church of Christ Family Center
WHAT DO I BRING?  Just a great attitude and a servant heart!
