Due to the Coronavirus, we find ourselves in unprecedented times. In addition to national/state guidelines and regulations, we also realize that each family, church, association, and community has different circumstances. We recommend that you follow the advice of your pastor, association, local government leaders and medical advice when making a determination regarding your option for a church and/or associational drill.
If a Church or Associational Drill has been canceled due to the Coronavirus, we recommend the following:
Please keep in mind small groups of 10 or less, social distancing, and good cleaning/disinfecting procedures.
At this point, we have not canceled any of our Regional Drills. We’ll make individual Regional Drill locations final decisions closer to the dates.
In the event Regional/State Drill Events are canceled:
Registration for Regional Drills will now probably not open until the first week of April. We may only open an event or two at a time in order to closely monitor the current situation and make the best decisions possible. Get immediate updates from our website by entering your e-mail address on our main webpage.
If we are able to host our Regional Drills as planned, the cost per driller/speaker to register will be $20. If we move to the remote/video option, the cost to register for each driller/speaker will be $10. (The remote registration fee will cover partial cost of administrative expenses, certificates/awards, and shipment expenses.). Member churches who contributed $250 or more to Georgia Baptist Bible Drill and Speakers Inc., earlier this year will receive special instructions to register each driller at a 50% discount.
We are still hoping to have a State Youth/High School Drill on our original date of May 9, but are also looking at a possible back-up date in June that we will announce in the near future.
Thank you for your patience and gracious consideration as events in our state and country are unfolding on a daily basis. Please understand that we may have to make additional future adjustments.
