AwanaGames: Exhilarating Fun, Eternal Focus

AwanaGames™ pits clubs and youth programs from local churches in competition at the local, state, regional and national level. AwanaGames is open to students in T&T, Trek and Journey. More than 600 AwanaGames events typically take place in the U.S. each year, with numerous others held worldwide. The event began in 1955 when four Awana clubs competed against each other in the basement of Chicago’s North Side Gospel Center. Clubbers were allowed to participate if they had completed certain requirements, including passing Bible knowledge-based tests. AwanaGames offers many benefits. Clubs develop a stronger identity and closer bonds amongst members. Kids are also motivated to attend club and complete handbook and manual sections to qualify for their team, learning God’s Word in the process. Area churches and leaders are also able to connect with each other in an atmosphere of fellowship. Leaders are also able to interact one on one with clubbers’ parents. Most importantly, the gospel is presented at each AwanaGames competition, allowing unsaved family members and friends in attendance a chance to hear and respond to God’s plan of salvation, some for the first time. AwanaGames is a win/win competition.

*Important Information Regarding AwanaGames™ and Washington State Law

The Zackery Lystedt Law dealing with concussion and brain injury in youth sports became law in the State of Washington on July 26, 2009. Any child with signs and symptoms of concussion must be removed from play immediately. Continuing to play with the signs and symptoms of a concussion leaves the child especially vulnerable to greater injury. Any child even suspected of suffering a concussion must be removed from the AwanaGames™ or Sparks-A-Rama™ immediately. So, as required by Awana Headquarters and the State of Washington both the Lystedt Form and Parental Consent and Release forms will be required for any and all students playing in the AwanaGames™. Please read the required forms and be aware of these changes. Please be aware of the revised PNW T&T Rulebook – scoring pins will be used in all games except in the four way tug.

Thank you Snohomish Community and PNWC Campers for the money you raised to help us purchase a new laptop. Ours stopped working last year and we needed a replacement.

Thanks again for your generosity!

What’s New for the 2010-2011 Ministry Year?

T&T is undergoing key updates to help leaders minister more effectively, especially to tweens, kids 10 to 12 years old.

Today, at a societal level, these kids face unprecedented pressures, demands and distractions, resulting in a marked increase in discouragement, apathy and disengagement. The T&T updates will work to help foster commitment, identity and community in the Awana club, especially for fifth- and sixth-graders, and give third- and fourth-graders a new stage to anticipate.

The message to kids: there is nothing more important than relationship with Jesus Christ, and His way of living is found in the Scriptures.
