Hello, Believe it or not school is right around the corner. Some people may say that this was a quick summer, some may say they can’t wait for school to start and yet some may say that this was a quick summer but are glad school is getting ready to start. Yes it was a quick summer but a very full one. We had a great VBS, three great trips with Elementary age kids to Camp Illiana and this Friday, August 5th we are having our final blast. We are collaborating with the Rec Ctr and having a Family Fun Night at Yellow Creek Park. Here are the details:

Where: Yellow Creek Park shelter 3 (next to the spraypark).

When: 5:30 until 8:00 (hot dogs and burgers served at 6:00).

What to bring: boys a 2 liter soft drink and girls a bag of chips or a dessert item.

Who: All OCC kids and their families.

We will have 2 inflatables for a great time.

Check out the new home|front monthly. There are family fun activities and my favorite, “food” recipes.

Hello,

Warmer weather means summer is right around the corner. If summer is around the corner, so is VBS and Camp Illiana. In fact, VBS is June 27th – 30th and we are already taking registrations and have t-shirts available. The cost for a shirt is $8 and I would recommend getting them early because we may begin running out of sizes. We also need volunteers. If you have helped in the past, have thought about it in the past or are new and want to get involved, WE WANT YOU!! Really, we need you!!

As well Camp Illiana dates are as follows for Elementary age kids:

If you are going into 4th, 5th or 6th grade we are going June 5th through 9th.

If you are going into 2nd or 3rd grade we go July 15th – 16th.

And if you are going into Kindergarten or 1st grade we go July 23rd.

Registration forms are available. We have a great time and they always feed us well.

Check out the attached home|front monthly. There is a lot of good family information and activities.

Thanks,

Tim Tru_HomeFront_Monthly 3.11-4.1

US Tornado Relief Project

As in the past, OCC is working with IDES (International Disaster Emergency Services) to help those who have been affected by the recent tornadoes. At the present time, funds are being collected to help with the people who are in need in the Alabama area. If you would like to donate to this worthy cause, simply place a check in the offering plate and on the “For” line write “US Tornadoes Fund.” IDES is presently assessing the needs in the affected area, which could lead to future service opportunities in the Alabama area. We will keep you up to date when additional service opportunities become available.
