One Week and Counting
by Josh on Jun.22, 2007, under Past Youth Camps
It’s officially one more week till Youth Camp! We’re really excited! The counselors are getting prepared. The handbooks are being sent to the presses. The staff are adding the final touches to the schedule. Workshops are being arranged. Things are all coming together as we’re getting ready for Youth Camp.
We’ve hit several great milestones this year. The first one being we have 20 counselors this year!! Whoa! This is the first time that we’ve had to too many counselors. Thank you everyone who volunteered to be a counselor. You’re support is most appreciated.
We’re also really excited at our giveaway for an iPod Nano. The current record stands at two guests, but we hope that campers would continue to invite your friends. We have very few slots left, so please let Pastor Rich (PastorRich@gmail.com) know that you WILL be going to Youth Camp.
I’ve had the opportunity to talk to several people tonight, with various obstacles in going to Youth Camp. It’s a great experience, and I encourage everyone to go! Whatever concern, problem, or obstacle you may face, let’s face them together and try to work out a great solution. Got Summer School on Monday? Not a problem. Let’s find a solution to each problem so you can come. We want you to come and no matter what’s the obstacle, we can overcome them.
Finally a few minor details about departure for on the Friday, the 29th of June. Please be at church at 5PM (1700hrs), having eaten dinner. Alternatively, you can bring dinner and eat it at church a bit later.
Please also note there are luggage policies this year:
All campers will be permitted to have 1 Carry On, 1 Luggage, and 1 Sleeping Bag (Pillow excluded). Each item should be able to fit with ease in an overhead bin of an aircraft. The maximum size is 62 inches (length + width + height) and no more than 50 pounds.
Keep an eye on this site over the week. Any important details and news will be posted as soon as it is available.
