Camp Alphie

[FirstAndFinest]

I received this email about Camp Alphie:
Each year Camp Alphie hosts a camp for children who have cancer or have had cancer. We do this at no expense to the family. We also recognize that this is a traumatic time for the parents, so a parent’s support camp is held in conjunction with the children’s camp, again, at no expense to the family. Over the past 18 years, we continue to hear how this experience of sharing and survival makes such a difference in the lives of the whole family. Camp Alphie could not serve these children and families without the generous support of others. The camp operates entirely on donations and through the support of a volunteer staff, Board, and generous community members and businesses. Camp Alphie is a non-profit organization and registered with the IRS as a 501(C)3 corporation.

Where does Alpha Delta Pi fit in to all of this? Alumna Betty Sterquell and the Amarillo alumnae spent several years dreaming, planning and creating Camp Alphie. It is our job to make certain that this camp stays strong and continues far into the future. For many years, ADPi’s were involved in every aspect of this camp. Today, we see a counselor and a donation here and there. Let’s put Camp Alphie back in the limelight of Alpha Delta Pi!

Camp 2004 is scheduled for August 1st – August 6th, 2004. It will be held at Ceta Canyon Methodist Camp (30 minutes south of Amarillo, Texas). The cost for one week of camp is approximately $250 per child. We are in need of counselors (male especially, all must be over 18), volunteers, donations, and prayers. Contact me today at one of the options listed below and let’s get busy! Please share this message with all your ADPi sisters!

Please PM me if you want the email address to get more info - or to volunteer!
