Youth Update 3.24.15

Last WAHO of the school year
This Wednesday will be our last WAHO of the school year. To celebrate we will be having a cookout at Corey and Samantha Jackson's home, 3914 Brass Cannon Cr. Greensboro, NC 27410. (Near the Spears YMCA).  I'll do the typical pickup schedule and would love some help getting the NW kids if any parent can pick them up for me.

We are asking families to join us for the cookout. The Jackson's are providing burgers, I'm bringing hot dogs (both beef and healthy turkey dogs), and we're asking you to send or bring a side item or dessert or drinks. Just bring some of your Memorial Day leftovers!

The kids will gather at 4:15 at the Jackson's and parents and families can join us then or after folks get off of work. We'll hang out until 7pm. Please RSVP here and let me know how many from your fam can come and what you can bring.




Summer Schedule

I hope to have the final summer calendar ready to go over with you at the cookout this Wednesday. Below is a preliminary draft. A couple dates might change so don't put them in your calendar yet.

Camp Payments
The 2nd payment for camp is past due, please get those mailed in ASAP.

We are 48 days from camp. The total cost for camp is $289. Most of you have already paid the $89 deposit.  

Here are the remaining payment due dates: 
May 17- $100
June 21- $100.

Feel free to go ahead and pay the remaining balance of $200 if you're able. 


Checks written to: Church of the Redeemer and mailed to COTR at PO Box 4764. Include your camper's name and 'summer camp' in the memo. You can also place checks in the offering baskets on Sundays, just make sure they are marked in the memo.

Camp Scholarships Needed
If you're able to pay more in order to help kids go who are in need of scholarships, please consider making a tax-deductible donation by writing a check with 'summer camp scholarship' in the memo.  We have 10+ youth who are in need of scholarships/fundraising.

Pressure Washing

If you have any need for pressure-washing done at your home, Graham Monroe will be pressure washing with our youth to raise money. Schedule it with Graham at GramCracker75@gmail.com.
