need volunteers to grill hot dogs and hamburgers, to serve food, to bake
brownies and cookies, and to help direct outdoor activities--hiking, ball
games, corn-hole, and face painting. We will have plenty of opportunities to
interact with the youth, who are well supervised by the home's staff. This is
an enjoyable and meaningful time. Sign-up sheets for "volunteers" and
"bakers" are posted on the hallway bulletin board along with
directions to the camp.

us out. You do not need to read music. I will teach you. We have a wonderful
time using our voices to praise God in song. We also work on our music at

those who could not be at rehearsal. Again please join us in choir and sing.
