2. Alpharetta 1st UMC is a safe sanctuary so all adults working with children on the church campus are required to attend a Child Youth Protection training and complete a background check. Each year you will have to review the requirements for working with the children, but will not need a background check after the initial one is complete.
3. You will be asked to coordinate two activities during the year. One activity should be a party or event at the church. For the other event, choose a Friday with nothing planned and get the details for a field trip.
Park Days
We have a weekly park day at Wacky World at Wills Park from 2 pm to 4 pm. For the fifth Tuesday, we meet at Webb Bridge Park from 2:00-4:00 pm. This is the best time to come and meet some of the families
Special Events or Parties
We hold parties for special times of the year like Christmas, Valentine’s, and Easter. We also have other fun events like a fall festival, family fun day, and more for the whole family to enjoy...Dads too!
Field Trips
On the weeks we do not have a special event or party, we go on a field trip. Our field trips have included: the fire station, The Rock Ranch, the governor's mansion, Cane Creek Farm, Amicalola Falls and more.
