 CAMP HURON...HERE WE COME!! 

 Thanks to all who contribute to “send a child to camp”!   

 Last year we raised enough funds to sponsor 7 children for a one-week amazing summer Camp Huron experience. The placement of the kids is coordinated through South Huron Big Brothers/Big Sisters.  

 This year, our goal is to send 10 children to camp, that otherwise would be denied of this wonderful experience.     www.camphuron.ca 

 The cost is $740.00 for one week to sponsor one person and tax receipts are available.  Please make your cheque out to St. John's-by-the-Lake and put Camp Huron in the tag line. Any amount is welcome, perhaps 2 or more people may want to jointly sponsor one person. 

 The time to do it is now as registration has already started. 

Let’s all get behind this and "Make it Happen"!
