Help!
This year, we have something new at Camp. While we do have a new Retreat Center (hopefully finished by the time you read this) and other new things which excite us, those aren’t what I’m talking about right now. In addition to those things, we also have a new week of Camp for kids from Halls. In the past, we’ve invited a few kids from Halls to join us in the Camps, which primarily recruited kids from Dyersburg. This year, however, we decided to try to do something different for the children from Halls. We are excited about the possibilities. Many people from Halls also seem to be excited about the possibilities. However, we also face some challenges. We need help recruiting counselors, a nurse, food directors, van drivers, and activity helpers. The counselors spend the day with a small group of children. They rotate from activity to activity with their group, providing some discipline, some structure, and lots of love. Each activity is led by someone who is experienced in that area, so counselors don’t have to know everything about everything we do at Camp. The Camp Nurse is there for emergencies but usually spends most of his or her time doctoring scrapes and sweat bee stings. Van drivers are needed who know their way around Halls. The van driver will pick up between 9-13 kids each day at their homes and deliver them safely to Camp, then, that afternoon, get them safely home. If you’d be interested in helping us in any of these areas any of the weeks (but especially July 15-18), please contact us at mycclub@juno.com or call Greg at 286-5435. Thank you!
