Reading Camp South County Rocked!

Once again Reading Camp was held at, and supported by, St. James' Parish, as well as other individual and corporate donors! Despite the unexpected absence of Paula Davis (you were missed!), Nancy Horkan and the rest of the staff admirably rose to the occasion and put on a wonderful and meaningful camp for almost 40 children! Our kitchen crew was superb, always serving meals and snacks on time and being such cheerful role models! Whether you donated funds, food, or books, prayed for the campers and staff, volunteered your time as a book buddy, classroom teacher, teen helper, or contributed in some other way, you are appreciated! Please check out the photos of this amazing program on our FaceBook page: facebook.com/pg/ReadingCampSouthCounty/photos/.
