At Summer Blast we are committed to providing a safe and comfortable environment that allows all children to access worship and ministry. Although we are not able to accommodate kids with special needs now. It is our desire to have this available in the future. If your child needs special accommodations during Summer Blast, and you feel like they would still be able to have a good experience, please email Jheri Thomas at jthomas@thelife.cc for more information.

Thank you for understanding that we will not be able to administer any over-the-counter or prescription medications during Summer Blast, except in the case of an Epi-Pen or a rescue inhaler because these are lifesaving medications.

We want to support your family with excellence at Summer Blast and want you to help us decide what your child can safely eat. During registration, you will be given the option to indicate that your child has a food allergy. After completing your registration, you will receive an email two weeks prior to Summer Blast to let know you what snacks will be served each day. This email will also contain instructions on how to send approved snacks to Summer Blast with your child if needed.

Please send your child’s rescue inhaler (and spacer, if needed) in a plastic zip top bag with their first and last name written on it to the first day of Summer Blast. Please give the rescue inhaler to your child’s group leader when you drop your child off for the day. Their group leader will keep the inhaler with them at all times.

Please send your child’s Epi-Pen in a plastic zip-top bag with their first and last name and allergen written on it to the first day of Summer Blast. Please give the Epi-Pen to your child’s group leader when you drop your child off for the day. Their group leader will keep the Epi-Pen with them at all times.
