Snowball 2024 – Candy Land
Join us for an epic winter extravaganza at The Barn! Snowball 2024 – Candy Land is the event you don’t want to miss. Get ready for an evening filled with dancing, laughter, delicious food, and lots of FUN! Come dressed to impress and enjoy the evening’s activities as we fellowship together, making new friends and lots of special memories. Make sure that your pre-teen/teen grabs their ticket as soon as possible; this event is sure to be a BLAST! The Snowball 2024 – Candy Land will be held from 6:00pm-9:00pm and will include ages 9-13yrs old. This event is exclusively for homeschoolers so please share with all your friends and family—the more, the merrier!
This event will have plenty of snacks and goodies for your child to munch on throughout the evening, as well as an outstanding DJ who will keep them moving and grooving all night long. The attire for this event (details below) will be semi-formal, so dress to impress and come ready to have a great time. A photographer will be available and will be taking candid photos/videos throughout the evening, but don’t forget to grab a few selfies at the photo booth to keep these memories alive all year long.
Parents are welcome to purchase an Adult Lounge ticket which will give attendees access to the upper area of The Barn. The Adult Lounge will be equipped with tables, chairs, and the most perfect view of the dance floor, where most of the action will take place. Adults will be required to follow the same dress code as attending students in order to maintain the integrity of the event.
This event will be heavily chaperoned and monitored; students will be required to remain indoors during the duration of the event for safety purposes. We will have a door monitor and bathroom monitors, as well as a plethora of volunteers that will be walking about the entire evening to ensure that everyone stays safe and has a wonderful time. Please arrive early to take photos outdoors around the beautifully decorated property of The Barn; however, note that attendees will not be able to enter the venue until 6:00pm.
Event Attire: Semi-Formal
Young Men are required to wear khaki or dress slacks with a polo or button-down shirt; t-shirts are not permitted. With this being a semi-formal event, I strongly discourage young men from wearing jeans or gym pants as these are not considered semi-formal. Young men may choose to wear a dress coat, suit jacket, dinner jacket, or tie, but these are not required.
Young Ladies should select a modest dress/skirt that reflects the evening’s dress code but still allows for movement and dancing. Pantsuits will not be permitted for this event. Skirts and dresses should be at least knee length. Long dresses with slits that are open above the knee will need to be sewn together to the appropriate length prior to the evening’s festivities. I strongly advise against strapless dresses or tops unless straps are added. Most young ladies at this age tend to run, dance, and move around a great deal, and it can be quite miserable for a young lady to constantly be having to pull up her dress all evening long, rather than just being able to relax and have a great time.
Our desire for the dress code of this event is to help teach, train, and educate our young people about the nature and expectations of a semi-formal event. We hope that, as they grow up and encounter events in their futures that require specific attire, they are prepared and equipped to handle each situation with grace and style. Parents, we want to come alongside you in your endeavor to educate your young people by guiding them and directing them during these early years. If you are unsure about any item your young person may be wanting to wear to this event, you are welcome to reach out to me or one of the other coordinators. We are all happy to help!!!
