I love this VBS! I found an old plaid suit at the retro shop and some horn rimmed glasses! I introduced each nights theme by reading clues. The kids would then use all the clues to figure out the theme for the night. It was alot of fun!

This was the first VBS program we put together and published. Even though we've made improvements on our other material - this one's still a gem! Here's an idea that will really tie your VBS program together. Develop a character that is unfit and lazy. Call him/her Olympic Bob or Olympic Sally - or come up with a better name. Develop some interaction with this character and the worship leader. Talk about what it takes to enter and compete in a sports event. Have him/her come back each night for more training, ex. selecting a coach, persevering, and finally a "physically fit" Olympic Bob on the last night. Parallel Olympic Bob's progress with the theme of VBS and making spiritual ties to his/her progress and the development of a Christian. Hope this sparks some ideas!
