Special Events
Pond Party
Join us as we kick-off a new year of Pier 56! Friday, September 15 @ 2:30 PM. We will gather as usual at Belgrade Alliance - and then head out to River Rock Pond for an afternoon of food, water fun & games! For those who will be walking form school, look for the Pier 56 sign in the oval on the east side of the school. We will leave the school at 2:20 PM. Please be ready to get wet, and bring any water toys you may have. You can leave your stuff at church if it is easier than taking it to school. Invite a friend to join you, and be sure you have all filled out a new registration form for the year. Connect with Grace Veltkamp with question.

First, and foremost, I am a daughter of the King and love Jesus! I am passionate about camping and youth ministry, and am especially drawn to the middle school age group. I have served as part of the Yellowstone Alliance Adventures staff team for several summers, which has truly helped me grow in my faith & confidence. I am blessed to serve as an intern at BAC, leading the Pier 56 Ministry for 5th & 6th grade students, while pursing NextGen Ministries at Crown College online.
