The youth group wants to interest you in a game of Kubb.  While they are more than willing to play it with you, they don’t JUST want you play it, they want  you to BUY it.  This spring the youth (under the leadership of Ron France) will be making Kubb sets (see photos of the game and a YouTube video on how to play). Ron does the cutting.  The class sands the wooden playing pieces and then paints them with fun motiffs. The money from the sets will go into the youth fund for future youth conferences.

Ron came up with the idea to have the youth begin making games and other items last fall.  The youth Sunday school class needed something to keep them focused. Ron begins his class with a brief lesson, then continues to chat and interact with the kids as they make things.  He found this has given the group purpose and loosened up the kids to talk.

Last fall the class made ladder golf games.  Over the Christmas season they made evergreen swags. The money they earned from the swags (about $250) went to God’s Kitchen in Grand Rapids, while the other monies earned will either go to future youth conferences (such as NYC) or will be given to other charities.

For our out of town guests, place orders now and pick up your Kubb set at Annual Conference this June in Grand Rapids.
