2024 Camp Staff Application
WinterDaze 2024 - 35th Season
Our 1-day Camp reunion WINTERDAZE was a HUGE success! We reunited with 135 of our summer campers and 40 staff members from SummerDaze 2023 to celebrate the saint who has brought our paths together. WinterDaze Reunion falls on the Saturday before the feast day of
St John Bosco whose teachings and wisdom permeate in all the young/ young adult programming at our parish. We give gratitude for the vision and mission of St John Bosco - to care for the youth and accompany them to be good Christians and honest citizens. Thank you for your unceasing love and support for this mission that allows our ministry to reach out to so many young people and their families through the light and lens of St John Bosco and St Francis de Sales (hence the name SALESIANS) from which St John Bosco named his congregation. |
SUMMERDAZE 2023 - 35TH SEASON
Dearest Benefactors, Parents, Guardians, Campers and Friends of SummerDaze
On behalf of the staff and St Benedict Parish community, we would like to express our heartfelt THANK YOU for your unceasing love and support for SummerDaze Day Camp. This season, like all others, met its own unique set of challenges, coupled with lingering covid19 mandates, we invested all that we had to ensure that our campers had a safe and wholesome summer camp experience all while ensuring the staff remained healthy, happy, holy and motivated. It is no doubt that SUMMERDAZE is the best camp in town and we are fervent to ensure it remains that way! We, as a community of faith and Salesian family are making St. John Bosco's dream a reality... through faith-filled fun and focused to work on our relationship with Jesus, we are raising Good Christians and Upright Citizens.
To all our benefactors, donors and community supports - your support helps to further the mission of the Salesians and St Benedict Parish and truly it is a gift that keeps on giving. When you see how our campers are formed in the faith, who one day become the volunteers, then move on to be counsellors and eventually administrators OR simply taking what they have learned from SummerDaze into their professions or career paths, it is because YOU made it possible for them to have such an amazing experience. 35 seasons of camp calls to mind the numerous young people who have come through the camper doors at St Benedict, touched by the Salesian spirit and continue to shine their light in the world. You remain in our prayers with grateful hearts. Thank You.
