ECYD / Conquest

Fall Boys' Camp

Theme: To Come...

📅 November 13-15
📍 Camp Brebeuf

 

ECYD Adolescents have the opportunity to encounter Christ, their best friend, as someone living and real, who accompanies them in every moment of their life. Through prayer, an adolescent discovers God’s presence in their heart, hears him and dialogues with him, seeks to know his will and receives strength to follow it. Prayer helps them to better understand the world around them and the events of their lives. (ECYD Statutes #20)

Brief description of help needed

You DO NOT need to run the event! We have a good team of high school leaders, missionaries, Consecrated Women, and Legionaries who will run the event for the kids. But we do need help elsewhere: 

Presence/Safety--we need enough adults present during the event to ensure the safety of the kids. Your quiet supervision let's everyone have fun.

First Aid--just in case.

Admin--help at the registration desk for sign in and money collection.

Shopping for snacks or other things (to be reimbursed by the camp).

Other--I normally forget something...
