Spring Is Here! Cookout, Memphis Zoo, & Camp

Parents and Students,
Spring has sprung! I hope you have been able to enjoy this beautiful weather we’ve been having lately. Now that spring break is over I want to give you a “heads up” on some upcoming youth ministry events.

This Saturday, March 26, we will have a cookout at the Tishomingo State Park. I’m asking for everyone to meet at the park at 3:30 that afternoon. We’ll “set up shop” in the open area close to where the swinging bridge and swimming pool is located. For those students needing transportation to the park, be at the church parking lot at 3:00 to load up and ride with me. If you travel by yourself you’ll have to pay the $3 entry fee. We’ll have hamburgers, hotdogs, and all the trimmings. Be prepared to play ultimate Frisbee, flag football, and other games.

April 23rd we will make a trip to the Memphis Zoo for the day. The cost will be $20 plus food expenses. I have a signup sheet in the youth room if you’re interested. We’ll leave out that Saturday morning and arrive home late that evening. Parents, we want you to go with us!

IMPORTANT! Summer Camp is approaching us fast (May 28th – June 1st)! We have several students signed up, but there are still spots open. Deposits are needed NOW. If you want to secure your spot please pay by April 1st. I will be adjusting our numbers that day. Parents, I would like a few of you to consider going with us as helpers /family group leaders. We will be doing a missions camp so it would be nice to have several adults helping me oversee our group. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

-Shannon
