2018 Reading Camp Volunteers Needed!

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 2018 year. Camp will be held July 30th - August 3rd at St. James' Parish. 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 us know. If you didn't help but wish to join the team, welcome! For more information or sign up to help, please contact Paula Davis at southcounty.md.readingcamp@gmail.com.
