Summer 2006 and yearlong volunteer opportunities

1. Summer is almost here! Kids across eastern Kentucky will soon be packing their bags to attend summer camp at Camp Shawnee and Camp AJ, and we need energetic, caring volunteers to help make camp a success. Volunteer lifeguards, camp counselors and medical personnel are urgently needed to staff the two overnight camps run by the Christian Appalachian Project. No prior experience at camp is necessary, just a desire to serve and a love of the outdoors and working with children. Call our office today to request a volunteer application- it could be the start of a summer you’ll never forget! CAP provides room and board for all volunteers, and potential AmeriCorps Education Awards are available. For more information about the Christian Appalachian Project and our extensive Volunteer Program please call 1-800-755-5322 or email us at volunteer@chrisapp.org. You can also visit our Web site at www.chrisapp.org.

2. Any students discerning a year of volunteer service? If so, please consider FrancisCorps- here is a video clip which tells the story of FrancisCorp: http://www.franciscans.org/franciscorp.cfm
