Can I Be A Volunteer?

Yes! We want you involved in Route 56, too! You are officially invited to volunteer for programming, events and trips, summer camp… the list goes on and on. Who knows, you might have so much fun that you will want to join our Team! Fill out the volunteer forms to get involved!

What’s Needed For My Student To Participate In Trips And Events?

If your student is participating in any Route 56 event, you will need to complete a current Consent Form/Liability Release for each student. In addition, you will need to register for the event. Additional forms may be needed for specific events. For a list of all forms, please click here.

What If I Can’t Afford For My Student To Go On A Trip?

We know that occasionally money for student activities is hard to find. It is our desire that money will never be the reason a student cannot participate in an activity. Scholarship funds are sometimes available. If your student needs financial help to participate in an event or activity, please call the church office at 850-622-9191 to request assistance. We cannot fund all requests, but every effort will be made to accommodate legitimate needs.
