WE NEED YOU!
Lots of help will be needed to make this program a success! Whether you are able to help out the entire week or just a day or two, your help will be truly appreciated! Adult and youth volunteers are needed to teach the younger age group, assist teachers, assist camp counselors, clean at the end of each day, set up and take down tables and chairs each day, work in the kitchen, greet parents, help with daily sign-in and check-out, usher and greet Thursday night, kitchen help for Thursday night's ice cream social, etc!

CONTACT
Please call Brandi Schuett from Immanuel-Trinity (929-6512) if you have any questions or would like to volunteer your services!

Studies show that youth who attend a church related camp week are significantly more likely to remain active in faith after confirmation, and even more likely to remain active in congregational life throughout high school and after college. Crossways programs not only strengthen youth but also build the Church!

WE HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!
