The AWANA Games

Kaity, Zach, Thaniel and Elli all go to AWANA on Wed. nights at our church. They are actively learning scripture and more about God each week. They also play games. These games have some interesting names like Bean Bag Bonanza, Poop Deck, and Rabbit Hunt. Once a year our Awana group puts together teams and goes to the AWANA Games. The last 2 years it has been at Seneca Valley High School. It is a LOT of fun!


Here's Elli getting into the spirit! Kaity, Zach and Thaniel were all on blue teams!


Here's Kaity (second in) before the games. They're not allowed to talk to anyone not on the game floor after the games start, but they can smile for pictures! (Zach was clear at the other end of the line, so I couldn't get a picture of him...too dark!)


Here is Miss Kelly congratulating everyone afterwards. There were 2 blue Truth and Training teams ( 3rd-6th grade) and 1 green. Both the blue teams took 2nd place and the green team 3rd!

Thaniel with his 1st place ribbon! There was only 1 team of Sparks, and they got 1st place again this year!!!



During church this past Sunday the teams were all recognized.



And here's a little video from the day of the games that I shot by accident, but Zach REALLY wanted me to post.

Gee...I wonder why Zach wanted you to post this video?! Could it be the 2 suspicious fingers in the background?! :-)
