There will be a ‘working’ ice cream social on
Sunday, June 24, 3-5 p.m.,
in the Parish Hall here at Church of the Ascension. We will have games for you to learn how to direct, make your camp name tags, and have a “Make-It-Yourself Ice Cream Sundae” bar. This is a time for you to get acquainted with your fellow staffers, as well as learn what you will be doing for the week at camp, so we ask that ALL volunteer youth counselors staff attend. Looking forward to seeing you there!
**If you can’t make it, please let Rebecca Saager know ASAP:
email
frankfortreadingcamp@gmail.com
or text 502.316.8899
so that she can get with you and go over anything needed
before
camp starts on Monday, June 25,
at 8:00 a.m.

Yes,
we are still looking for Coffee Hour hosts and helpers!
Do you have a team, group, family or partner who could bring in a few light/simple snacks, and/or help serve and clean up, for our important time of fellowship after the 10:30 service on Sunday? If you would like to help with Coffee Hour, please sign up on the printed sheet on the office window (or contact Jan Stevens - see below). The coffee itself is provided by the Men's Club, and vestry members have agreed to pitch in on Sundays when no one else is scheduled, but we encourage everyone to share in this ministry as you are able.
- Jan Stevens is our Hospitality Coordinator - contact her by email at jstevens5@aol.com to discuss Coffee Hour questions, needs and procedures. If you can bring treats but need a helper, or vice versa, Jan can help you team up!
