WHAT IS KOZ, KIDS OUTDOOR ZONE?

KOZ is a ministry that uses hunting, fishing and outdoor adventure as a tool to mentor to boys. We train men in churches to role model and disciple the boys that are in their churches and communities through the KOZ outdoor adventure curriculum.

WHAT DO KOZ MEETINGS LOOK LIKE?

At these meetings, the boys will be mentored in outdoor skills and adventure by trained KOZ leaders and other male volunteers. The boys will also be cared for and given a view of Christ and what it means to be a Christian boy/young man in our world.

Williamsburg's KidsOutdoorZone, “KOZ”, (see: KidsOutdoorZone.com for more on this International program), offers a premier monthly Outdoors Adventures program to boys

(8 - 18), the THIRD SATURDAY of every month. We meet 8:30am at the Pavilion (behind JamesRiverBaptistChurch, at 4931 Centerville Rd, Williamsburg); and through certified "Harvest Team Leaders" (HTLs), provide education and instruction on how to have safe, engaging fun that boys naturally love! 

 

We learn and enjoy doing challenging things in the great outdoors . . . but most importantly, how to make tough decisions, and be responsible for the results of their choices - and experience the rewards of their actions!

 

Participants MUST complete the program Registration Form in advance, and RSVP to help ensure adequate equipment and logistics for included Campfire Lunch - (as always, FREE to the Boys! Dads are welcomed to help contribute +/or bring a dessert, etc.). IF you have some tools or gear to donate, or skills to share, please consider contributing them, as we consider it all a blessing!  (Tax-Deductible donations can be made payable to: “JamesRiverBaptist Church” with “KOZ” in the memo section)

 

Contact David Chin, (DavidinWburg@gmail.com, 631 495-8654) for more information and to receive "Registration Form" to be completed in advance. NOTE: The 2024 KOZ Registration, Permission and Liability Waivers (attached), must be completed, signed and submitted to participate. Complementary “Notary Service” may be provided mornings of events, so please feel welcomed to come a bit early if need be. . . and BRING A FRIEND!

 

* We will meet at the Church Pavilion as usual, and after admin and traditional opening is conducted, will depart by POV caravan to private beachfront on James River to conduct program, return time all dependent upon how the fish are biting, but usually concluded by 1:30 with smiles to last all month long!
