Reading Camp South County 2016

Last year we had the rewarding experience of running a camp designed to help underachieving students improve readings skills. It is time to assemble our team for the 2016 year. Camp will be held August 1–5 at St. James'. We need several kinds of volunteers. To run the instructional groups, we need teachers current or retired. We also need adults who were not teachers, and we need several teenagers. If you helped last year and are able and willing to help again, please let me know. If you didn't help but wish to join the team, WELCOME! For information please contact Paula Davis at southcounty.md.readingcamp@gmail.com.
