New to VBS in Harrisonburg, VA? Things to consider:
- If some of your children are too old to attend VBS in Harrisonburg, VA and you would like to have all of your kids involved, contact the church to find out if they would be able to volunteer in some capacity.
- Most churches will accept friend requests, so if your child is feeling anxious, sign them up with a friend!
- Many churches hold VBS in the evenings which may not work well for kids who are used to an early bedtime. If this is true for your child, consider signing up for a VBS that meets during the day.
