Check-in: Starts at 5:30 PM
Start Location: All children will begin the evening in the auditorium, where we will go over the schedule and rules for the night.
Important Pick-Up Information
Pick-up: 8:15–8:30 PM in the auditorium
A parent, guardian, or authorized adult must physically come inside to pick up and check out their child.
Children will not be released without proper check-out.
Lost & Found: A Lost and Found table will be set up at the front entrance. Please take a moment to check for any items that may belong to your child before leaving.
Thank you for helping us make this a smooth and enjoyable evening for everyone. We can’t wait for Kids’ Night Out 2026!
NOTE:
Tickets are non-transferable. The Rec prepares for these events by using a specific registration list of names. Because these nights get very busy and “wonderfully chaotic,” sticking strictly to our pre-registered list is the only way we can ensure every child is accounted for and safe.
What this means for tonight: Only the children appearing on our official registration list will be able to enter. We cannot accept swapped tickets or “stood-in” spots at the door. We truly appreciate your understanding and cooperation!
