SPRING BREAK AHEAD: The planning process is underway for Spring Break, April 1-5. As usual for one of the busiest weeks of the year at the Kroc Center, we will be offering an array of additional activities for families to enjoy. Supervisors should be working on employee schedules as soon as possible; please be sure to provide as much availability as you can, as there may be opportunities to pick up additional hours.
CAMP KROC REGISTRATION: Camp Kroc registration is open as of Friday, March 1. Registration is handled like all other programs through the Kroc Center online member portal or mobile app; however, forms including scholarship applications, medical paperwork, etc. will be managed separately. Once again this year, immediate family members of Kroc Center employees will be eligible for a 50% discount. Please see Alyson Rodriguez to have the discount enabled on your account prior to registration. Pick up a camp guide at the Welcome Desk or GrKrocCenter.org/camp.
EAT COMMITTEE SHENANIGANS: As an early St. Patrick’s Day celebration, the EAT Committee will be passing out ‘Shamrock Shakes’ to employees on Thursday. Be on the lookout for a sweet treat in both the morning hours and again for the evening shift.
HOLY WEEK SCHEDULES: As a reminder, Good Friday (March 29) is an administrative holiday, but the Kroc Center will be open. The Kroc is CLOSED on Easter Sunday (March 31), but be sure to join Kroc Church for special worship and festivities to celebrate our risen Savior!

Here are some of the upcoming events and groups at the Kroc Center:

Each week, members of the Kroc Center and Kroc Church submit a number of requests for prayer. We welcome these from everyone in our community, and encourage all our Kroc Krew to lift up these requests in your own way. Don’t forget that you are always welcome to attend devotions on Tuesday mornings at 9am in the Green Room; if you have a prayer request to share, you can post it on the board in the lobby, use the online form, or contact a member of the Kroc Church team.
