Community Service Week!

Energizers Summer Camp Newsletter Issue 3

Monday July 10, 2013

What’s New This week is community service week. This week is all about giving back to the community and helping those in need. The junior staff went to the beacon house to teach dance and do other activities. We went twice during the community week. The kids age ranged from 5-15 and we split them into four (4) groups. We also preformed what we have learned in our four weeks in camp. The kids at beacon house enjoyed the dance experience.
