We accept children from age 7-12 years. We will make exceptions for
those who are younger if they are coming with a group and accompanied by
an adult group leader or their parents.
2. Must we send adults for Group registration?
YES. Churches sending 5 or more children must register as a group and
send 2 leaders for every 10 children.
