Event/Activity Calendar for North Central Tennessee

To support the Awana ministry in your church, we sponsor a number of regional events where your Awana leaders and clubbers can join with other Awana clubs for learning or competitions. Awana is a balanced ministry with events that support both cognitive and physical activities with age-appropriate competitive levels.

Some of our annual Awana activities in this region include...
  • Awana Leadership Training Conference (Fall)
  • January Jump Start (Winter)
  • AwanaGames Coaches and Officials Training (Winter)
  • Bible Quiz for Third through Sixth Graders (Winter)
  • Sparks-a-Rama and AwanaGames Weekend (Winter)
  • Trek and Journey Weekend [Bible Quiz and AwanaGames] (Spring)
