Summer Day Camp
2008 Summer Day Camp
When summer is here, there is a place not far from here where kids and parents worry about what summer brings. These families live in extreme conditions where things like food, fun, and even safety cannot be taken for granted. Many of them are not only wondering what they’ll do during summer vacation, but what they’ll eat! Because of poverty in the household, many of these kids count on receiving most of their meals at school.
Kids need a safe place to go in the summer where they can play, learn, relax and have fun. This summer Shepherd Community Center provides all that and more for 150 kids in our community.
Children, pre-school through High School, can attend a 9-week summer camp every day from 8:00 am until 3:00 pm.

It’ll cost ‘em. Each child has to pay his or her own way -- $1.00 a week.
These kids will learn valuable money skills, but we obviously will need your help!
Only $89.00 will send one child to Summer Day Camp for a week; $720 will keep a child in camp for the entire summer.
These kids will be working hard to earn that dollar. Send your money to camp this summer, and then have fun, sit back and relax. Your money will be hard at play.
