Mohican Madness is just around the corner. The flyers are in the mail on the way to your house as we speak - or you can just go ahead and download one here. Give it to your parents and send it on in - it’s going to be sweet. The new 6th grade class will be here so it’ll be bigger and better than ever. Wanna see what last years was like? Check out the video from last year. Go-carts, camping, canoeing, and so much more. It’s going to be a great weekend and our last retreat for the summer. So clear the calendar and come with us - it’ll be sweet. You going to be there? I know I am.
See you soon.

Hey so we’re headed back to Pioneer Waterpark for an afternoon of good times. There won’t be any Club JV the day we go so this will a great time to hang out with friends all day. Your parents can download a form HERE –> ( waterpark2009) and bring that with a check to the warehouse. It’s a great time - we had a blast last year and I’m sure this year will be no different. So grab a flyer - invite all your friends and get ready for a great day out at the water park.
Can’t wait - i’m grabbing my flip flops, board shorts, and scuba gear as we speak (just kidding - please don’t bring your scuba gear - or if you do can Marty and I borrow it?).
See you then -

It’s a sad day - no club this coming Tuesday the 7th. I’m gone for the week in Chicago - but that doesn’t mean that you still can’t get together with your friends - so call them up and have a good time without me.

July 18th-19th are looking like 2 great days this summer. We’re headed out to camp Patmos on Kelleys Island for two days to spend time exploring the island, tubing, water-skiing, and general tom-foolery (that means having fun).
ReDirect is all about learning what it means to really follow Jesus with our lives. Unlike some other times when it’s mostly me talking this will be a chance for a lot of discussion and conversation - it’s really a lot of fun. You should be getting a flyer in the mail but you’re more than welcome to print one out here and send it on in. The trip is limited to 25 students so make sure you sign up early. Also make sure your parents know that they won’t be able to sign up online (we’re working on that) so they can either turn form in to Caitie at the office, or send them in through the mail.
I’m pumped - it’s gonna be a great trip.

Put the parkas and uggs (or whatever you kids wear these days) away. Summer is almost here - aaaaaaaand - that means a new calader with new events. So here it is, the long awaited may-august calendar, which means that school is almost over, the pool will be open soon and i’m gonna go dig out my arm floaties and sunscreen. . . can you say cannonball.
Have a great time at small groups this week.
Make sure to wait 30 minutes after eating before getting in the pool - otherwise you’ll get cramps, or the seagulls will get you - i forget which one.
