Children’s Choir
For more information about the Children’s Choir, contact Director of Music John Herrick
Our Whole Lives (OWL)
Our Whole Lives is the Unitarian Universalist Association’s human sexuality program. Our congregation offers all four of the classes designed for children and youth in alternating years. Because no facilitator training took place during 2020, some OWL classes will be delayed a year. Please watch our weekly UUCC newsletter, Currents, for updates.
Mountain CONferences
Mountain CONs are weekend-long conferences held at the Mountain Retreat and Learning Center in Highlands, NC. Two CONs are offered annually for each of three age groups (3rd-5th, 6th-8th, 9th-12th).
If your child plans to attend the next Mountain CON, you must register online through the Mountain. In addition, a $35 transportation fee, paid to the UUCC, is required, as is attendance at the annual Mountain CON Orientation held at the UUCC. Scholarships are available for up to 50% of the registration and transportation fees; contact cyre@uuccharlotte.org.
Class Trips
Individual classes may offer visits to other houses of faith or other locations in our community throughout the year, depending on the curriculum. Completed permission forms, required for children and youth to attend, are distributed to all parents of the registered children/youth prior to the event.
