Where Fearless Kids Shine God's Light
At Crocodile Dock, kids will take a romp through the swamp and keep an eye out for "God in action" in their everyday lives. So hop on a flat-bottom boat and drift on lazy, hazy waters under tall cypress trees--until the big adventure begins.
And on Friday afternoon (Noon) we'll have an Ice Cream Party and the kids will sing the songs they have learned during the week!
