A Call for Artists!

We need YOU to design the t-shirt for Heritage Camp 2013. Draw your t-shirt design on an 8x11 sheet of plain white paper, and send it to the address below.  Your design should reflect the feeling of "Many Cultures, One World"; that Heritage Camp is a mix of many cultures.  Your design can only be printed in one color, so please keep that in mind as you create your design.

We need your design by April 10, 2013.  If your design is chosen, we will all be wearing your art work at Heritage Camp this year.  You will also be awarded a $25 gift certificate!  If you ask any of the past winners they will tell you that it's pretty cool to see your design being worn by hundreds of campers.

Send those designs to:

Thanks!

Heritage Camp Meeting Reminder

The first meeting for Heritage Camp 2013 will be this Saturday, February 23, 2013.  We will meet at my house; if you need directions please e-mail me :)  The meeting will start at 9:30, with a goal of being done at 11:00.  I know Saturdays are busy!

Although we still need several volunteers in leadership positions, I am happy to say that we do have a Preschool Camp Coordinator, and a Picnic Coordinator!!!   We are still desperately seeking two Camp Directors "in training", and a Global Camp Coordinator "in training".  Spread the word!!

Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday!  I'll have coffee and bagels.

Thanks,
Cathy
