We want to be a Good Neighbor
We can't do it without you
June 16, 17- 18
Gibbs Elementary School
We've been invited...
We’ve been invited by Gibbs Elementary to help host a block party in their neighborhood—and we’d love for you to be part of it.
Each evening begins at 5:30 PM. Bring your friends and family and come ready to enjoy a simple night of connection, fun, and being present together.
This is a chance to show the Gibbs neighborhood what a good neighbor looks like—not by doing something big, but by showing up, building relationships, and sharing the summer together.

INFO
Can I eat dinner while I volunteer?
Yes - Hot dogs will be available for volunteers. We encourage you to eat dinner beforehand if possible, but if not, plan to arrive 15–20 minutes early to grab a meal before your shift begins.
Where do I find out more about serving roles?
You may email missions@autumnridge.church if you have any questions. Otherwise, we will send more information via email as we get closer to the event date.
Will parking be available on site?
Parking is available in the school lot.
Can my kids serve?
Yes! We welcome kids of all ages to serve. If your kids are younger than 4, please bring them with you (but don’t sign them up for a separate registration spot). If your kids are 4-12 years old, an adult needs to serve with them. Teens are able to serve independently of their parents, as you feel comfortable.
Where do I check-in?
After parking, please head to the volunteer check-in table. We will have signs and name tags for you to grab before heading to your specific serving area.
Are background checks required to serve?
Yes, background checks are required for anyone over 18 years of age.
What happens if it rains?
If we need to cancel an evening of the Good Neighbor Party, we will update you earlier that day with an email, text, and webpage banner on the main ARC homepage.
