Zionsville United Methodist Church (ZUMC) has offered an afterschool program for elementary school children since the 1980βs. (Really Outrageous Christian Kids) program was developed in 1998 from HOT and WOW programs that preceded it. This program was after school Monday through Friday, serving children in grades K-6 then expanded to before school in 2002. The activities offered included Christian
education, recreation, crafts and academic tutoring. The program not only gives parents a peace of mind knowing that their children were being well cared for in a safe Christian environment, but the teachers loved us too. The morning consists of physical activities (burn off excess energy so the children are ready to sit and learn), crafts and most importantly we begin the day with joys and concerns, a morning devotion and prayer time. This program provides 10 weeks of summer camp for children grades K-6 that βrocksβ Monday-Friday from 6:45am-6pm.
