OOOOooo no. Ohdearohdearohdear.
This is the last week for VBS registration, and we only have 25 kids registered so far. Our limit is 70. That's what we're buying for.
Last year we got 54.
I see no scenario in which we can possibly get 20 more kids over the weekend. It would probably take a miracle. Or faith.
I should just leave it all in God's hands... things usually have a way of working themselves out... But to go through all this planning and effort for less than 50 kids? If our final attendance is lower than that, we may have to reconsider our efforts for next year... Ohhhh my... we have a budget that's growing closer to $2000 every day.... for 25 kids? That's like $80 a kid.
This is NOT GOOD.
I just made phone calls tonight to the parents of about 20 kids who participated last year but had not yet registered for this year. I got one additional registration. I left messages on the rest of them. Oh. my.

Maybe you could call the 25 families who did register, and let them know that there are still spaces available, and if they refer a friend who signs up, you'll give them back $10 for the referral?
we dont have a budget to afford to do that... we rely on registration money to fund our finale night.....
but i like the idea of a possible bonus for a referral... i'll talk to the treasurer (my mom haha) to get her take on it.....
