Youth Group Mall Hunt
2023-03-18 16:00 - 18:30 (America/New_York) | SouthPark Mall, 4400 Sharon Road, Charlotte, NC, 28211, United States
Hey Cross Park family! Even though we do NOThave youth group this week, we do have an incredible fellowship event for your students and their friends.
This Saturday (3/18), we will meet at South Park Mall for a rousing game of mall hunt! If your student and their friends plan to attend this event, please note the following:

DROP OFF LOCATION: The front door of South Park Mall in front of the Cheesecake Factory at 4:30PM
PICK UP LOCATION: The Food Court of the South Park Mall at 6:30PM

Parents, we know that this will overlap with dinner time for some of you, so come enjoy fellowship with other youth families in the food court while the students play. We plan to play from 4:30-6PM, and then eat dinner together from 6-6:30PM in the food court.
Since the mall can be chaotic, here are the phone numbers of three youth leaders if you need to contact any of us during our time together. (numbers are listed in the most recent youth email).

Sunny Green
Steph Robnett
Spencer Johnson

Students, this is a fantastic opportunity to invite your non-Christian friends, and introduce them to the community of God’s people!
Hope to see you there!
