Hello Parents – 
 
First of all we want to wish Morgaine and Katie the best as they move up to the high school group.  They will be missed.
 
We would like to thank all the parents for their involvement this year in providing your support and not to mention coming through with dinner each week.  Having the food provided takes A LOT of the pressure off the advisors, and hopefully provides you a break as well on the weeks you are not on "dinner detail".

We are pleased to welcome Danielle Stockbridge to our youth group and her family to our parish, and are looking forward to welcoming our rising 6th graders (Annika Cline, Charlie Rosser & Liam Penland). Please remember that ALL middle schoolers are welcome, so if your kids want to bring friends then please encourage them to do so.  Remember, though, that In order for their friends to participate in the Shrine Mont retreat we (the leaders) need to have established relationships with them through regular attendance at the Sunday night meetings.  Feel free to contact any of the youth advisors if you have questions about our "friends" policies.  

We have already confirmed our Shrine Mont weekend for next spring.  It will be the weekend on April 16^th, 2010.  We are lucky to have been able to confirm the same accommodations that we had this year.  It was a real treat to have all of us together in one house, that is after having the other church group move out. Hopefully we won’t have that issue again.  I (Vicki) already have this date on my calendar and am more than ready to get back to Shrine Mont.

It is still hard to believe that the youth group year has so quickly come to an end.  It has been a great year and all of the new faces have been such a wonderful addition to the group.  We have enjoyed spending Sunday evenings with your kids.
 
If anyone has ideas for getting the kids together during the summer please feel free to pass those along to us and we will see what can be worked out.
 
Have a wonderful and safe summer and we will see you in the fall at our first meeting which will be on September 13^th.   During the first meeting we will have our kick-off picnic.  At this time we will have permission forms to be completed, as well as a tentative schedule of the year’s activities and meal schedule.
 
Your 2009/2010 Middle School Youth Advisors
