Summer Interest Groups (SIGs)
Home Groups break for the summer and in their place we offer Summer Interest Groups—a wide variety of groups that meet during the summer and create community around shared interests. SIGs offer a great way to reach out to the community and make new friends.

Childcare For Summer Interest Groups
To make Summer Interest Groups available for families, PCC is able to offer childcare on pre-selected dates for children 3 months - 11 years. (Check group information for availability and note that some groups meet more often than childcare is available.)
Prior to the start of your first meeting, please register your child(ren) so we can have the appropriate number of workers. There is a flat fee of $40/family for childcare regardless of the number of kids you register. This covers all the childcare for that weekly time slot (Tuesday AM, Wednesday PM, or Thursday AM). (If you sign-up for groups that meet on different days of the week, please register and pay for each day separately). Payment can be completed online or using a green envelope.
Visitor Policy: Visitors are always welcome to join groups at any time during the summer. Please contact the Childcare Coordinator, Torrie Anderson (childcare@pccyorktown.com), if you plan on trying a SIG and would like to utilize childcare for that event. After the first visit, please register and pay for childcare for the particular day the SIG meets.
The parent or guardian bringing the child(ren) must be attending a Summer Interest Group while the child is in care. Parents and children must abide by all of the Children's Ministry policies for wellness and behavior.
If you have any questions about childcare, please contact PCC Childcare Coordinator Torrie Anderson (childcare@pccyorktown.com).

=========================
Offsite Childcare Policy
Summer Interest Groups may provide off-site babysitting arranged by the host, and families using the babysitting services will be asked to contribute to the cost. Off-site childcare is not arranged by PCC and therefore not subject to PCC's childcare policy.
We understand that the expense of childcare can be a deterrent to joining and participating in a group. Because we are committed to reducing the obstacles facing people attempting to get into community, the church reimburses its groups at a predetermined rate for their childcare expenses.
Peninsula Community Chapel now offers childcare reimbursements via our online form.
