...2015 LCRD SUMMER CAMP INFORMATION LETTER Welcome to the LCRD Summer Day Camp! The goal of this program is to provide a summer full of fun for each participant. There will be a great deal of emphasis on activities that promote physical fitness, education, and respect for others. Please note that the LCRD Summer Day Camp is NOT licensed by the State of Georgia. Camp activities will include games, sports activities, crafts, swimming, and field trips. Campers will report to Shuman Recreation Center each morning starting Tuesday, May 26, between the hours of 7:30 and 9:30 a.m. and must be picked up each day no later than 6:00 p.m. at the same location. The fee is $75 per camper per week. This fee includes the cost for field trips and other entertainment. Campers may need additional money for snacks, souvenirs, etc, when on field trips. Fees for the upcoming week must be paid each Thursday to the Camp Director, or a late fee of $10 will be accessed. The Camp Director must be advised in advance when campers will be absent in order to maintain their slot in the program. Campers must bring a sack lunch each day, unless instructed otherwise. Campers may bring lunches that need to be heated, except for days that we will be away from the center during lunch. Parents must pay close attention to the weekly activity schedule that will inform you of activities in advance. Afternoon snack and drinks will be provided daily. If you know that your child does not like what is...

...4-6-year-old girls cared deeply about this wedding. Despite the absence of a reason for celebration, I pulled all the girls into the circle and we started dancing and clapping to the music. The energy that went into the preparation on previous days could finally be appreciated. My campers and I not only celebrated the accomplishment of the mock wedding, we celebrated the fun and excitement we experienced for the first three weeks in Camp Glitter Girls. I had begun preparing for Camp Glitter Girls over four months before by budgeting, sending out fliers, confirming registration and finally making sure that every camper would have the time of her life. As I danced, I celebrated the times I almost lost my patience but didn't, the times that I planned activities late into the night because I knew that only an organized schedule would ensure the success of my camp. The lessons I had learned from previous summer camps contributed greatly to this camp's success. At the age of thirteen, I first ran a camp for eight children. The next year a friend and I co-managed a camp for twenty children at a...

...I have been around summer camps my entire life. The world needs the next generation to be more tolerant of each other’s views, ideology, and beliefs. Summer camp is an opportunity for children to be exposed to the best of human character. Carefully selected role models are dedicated to showing your child how to have fun, learn from others, and make friends in person rather than online. Camp allows kids to meet people from all over the world, every race, culture, and socioeconomic level. I still remember one of my counselors, Danny, from England, explaining to me, “The world is full of excuses. It doesn’t matter where you came from or what has happened to you. At the end of the day you choose how you treat others.” There is something magical about a summer camp experience. Each and every camp in the world is different. Not merely because of geography or location, but because of the traditions and people who have touched the camp. Every camp has hidden treasures of history and traditions that give it character and identity. Even with agency camps like the YMCA where there is a common mission, every camp is unique in its style, program, games, geography, traditions, and experience. Every staff member, alumni camper, and volunteer has memories associated with their time at their camp — memories that stay with them for their lifetime. Most people remember with fondness the coun¬selors, cabins, camp food, camp outs, and special happenings of their time. Camp is an independent experience...

I don’t have time to take care of the stuff that surrounds me every day that is disposable, like coffee cups and diapers and tea bags and things that if I slowed down and paid attention to and shepherded, husbanded, nurtured, would last a lot longer. I wouldn’t have to replace them as often as I do. But who has time for that? We keep it cognitively and physically on the edges as much as we possibly can, and when we look at it head-on, it betrays the illusion that everything is clean and fine and humming along without any kind of hidden cost.” ― Robin Nagle om_ak_fall_corn little paper parents get the tipsheet email address subscribe second city summer camps ...

...f C o n t e n t s Introduction Introduction For many seniors in the graduating class of 2012, senioritis kicked in early March. This was around the time many teachers began assigning projects and AP classes were coming to an end. The senior trip to Disney World, spring break, preparation for AP exams, and the excitement for graduation all made the seniors eager for the summer. The countdown had begun. We thought that a survey focusing on summer was a great idea to get a large sample size since many students would be interested in the topic. Even though, our main focus was the seniors and their thoughts about the summer, we also wanted to know what the underclassmen had to say about this topic. We distributed our surveys to a large population of high school students which included both genders: males and females; and all the grade levels. Personally, we are very excited about the summer of 2012. It's the last summer we get to spend with our family at home and with friends, who we probably won't see again. Most of us have spent previous summers working, playing a sport, going to camp or going on an elaborate family vacation. This led to the inclusion of questions in our survey regarding these topics. For many of us this may not be the case anymore. We will be preparing...

...The rash covers a wide area of the thigh and seems to be roughly circular. The center of the circular area appears normal. There are no other symptoms, but the rash has been present for over three weeks and it seems to be growing. The doctor questions about possible exposures. Has she worn any new pants lately? Has she been in the woods? Do her joints hurt? She tells him that she spent the month of August at summer camp in the mountains of Pennsylvania. She’s been wearing mostly shorts and bathing suits for the past two months, none of them new. She doesn’t remember any bites on her thigh. 1. On the basis of the oral history, what is the most likely diagnosis? What would the causative agent look like with gram stain? Lyme Disease is the most likely diagnosis (3). Borrelia burgdorferi will show up pink with gram stain because it is gram – (1). 2. How did she most likely acquire her infection? She most likely acquired the infection from an Ixodes tick bit (deer tick) at summer camp (1). 3. Would the diagnosis be any different if she had attended camp in Arizona? Explain. She may have still gotten a tick bite, but not by the same type of tick (4). In Pennsylvania, it was more than likely by a deer tick, resulting in Lyme Disease (1). In Arizona, she could have made contact with a dog tick, resulting in Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (2). 4. Why does the doctor ask if her joints hurt? Lyme Disease causes inflammation of joints, which is a symptom...

...How successful was Fascism in achieving its totalitarianism ambitions? The first time Mussolini used the term ‘totalitarian’ was in a speech at the Fascists Party’s fourth national congress in 1995*1 , he declared the ‘goal that is defined as our ferocious totalitarian will be pursued with even greater ferociousness’*1 . There is no doubt that Benito Mussolini was a very determined dictator. His aim was to create a long lasting Fascist Italy*1. In order to achieve his aim he required the total involvement and participation of every member of the state, in other words he needed to ‘Fascistize the masses’*1. Unfortunately Fascism was a very ambitious plan that failed to properly execute its aims*2. In order to delve deeper into the ways that Mussolini failed in his totalitarianism aims, we must first define what totalitarianism is. The essence of totalitarianism can be seen as a regime’s total control of the everyday life of its citizens, of its control, and more particularly of their thoughts and attitudes as well as their activities *3. A totalitarian dictatorship must have an elaborate ideology, a single mass party which is led by the ‘dictator’, a system of terror, near complete control over weapons of armed combat, control over all means of effective mass communication including the press, radio and cinema, and finally central control over the entire economy*3. While Mussolini dabbled in all of these areas he failed to execute them in an effective manner. It is interesting...

...Cover Letters and other career correspondence Your letter is your introduction —it continues or starts a conversation about work or education Just as you start a conversation by introducing yourself, a résumé should always be sent with an accompanying letter. Picture yourself sitting face-to-face with a person doing work that is interesting. What would you say? What do you want to ensure they know about you before you leave the room? Your letter is a chance to make a great first impression or continue a conversation that has already been started. Your letter is something employers expect —it shows your professionalism and helps them get to know you Every time you submit a résumé, you should attach an accompanying letter. Even if they don’t specifically request it, employers expect documentation from you that shows your professionalism and potential contributions. What better way to start than by using a cover letter? Your letter should clearly show the match —it illustrates the connections between you and the work Some employers scan your résumé first, while others start with the cover letter. To increase your chances of being invited to an interview, ensure that both documents clearly show the match between what the employer needs and what you can contribute. Once you have made the match, remember that the letter is your chance to stand out as an individual from the many other qualified applicants. Include information that supports and points to your résumé, without...

...Introduction: Community based out of school time (OST) programs play an important role in the development of youth and the success of our communities. Though academics are a pivotal part of success, it is also the leadership and social interactions that can help provide real-world experiences (Nicholson, Collins & Holmer, 2004). This process of understanding the transformations that occur within some organizations is one of critical thinking and discovery. In addition, it provides a deeper perspective of how organizational stakeholders serve as change agents and improve the leadership abilities within the community. The organizational change that was examined over the course of this study was one connected to the request by York County SC community members. They wanted assistance in eradicating the high dropout rate. After reports from the SC Department of Education that the dropout rate in York SC was increasing, United Way of York County began to take a harder look at the educational needs of the local residents. This final paper will examine the dynamics of change to include the content, process and context of that change as well as the community reaction toward that change. Finally, I will share some of the conclusions and recommendations of how this change affects the structural configuration of programs and organizations. Significance of the Problem The United Way of York County, which was established in 2005, was previously viewed as a funding agency that provided...

...“If what I said wasn’t true, no one could challenge me because on this subject they are as ignorant as I am.” -Graciano Lopez Jaena- “I love argument, I love debate. I don't expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me, that's not their job.” -ate coring "Present your case," says the Lord. "Bring forth your strong reasons," says the King of Jacob. Isaiah 41:21 What is debate? A debate is a contest, or, perhaps, like a game, where two or more speakers present their arguments intent on persuading one another. Men have been debating with one another since the beginning of time when the serpent first debated with Eve the benefits of eating certain fruits in the Garden. We shall limit ourselves here with discussing formal contest debating between educational institutions, or, in the world of homeschooling, between families that choose to bypass educational institutions and educate their children at home.
