Community: Peace Camp

Joyce Lang, a longtime resident and tireless volunteer in Cheverly, has asked us to post this message:

Hello Friends & Neighbors,
Cheverly's 2nd annual Peace Camp begins in 1 week. We still need some funding for scholarships. We've been registering youngsters and will have a substantial number of campers and counselors-in-training for this year's camp.

Some of our campers come from large families and/or families in need and need help with the tuition. In addition, we're working to make this program a community effort on the road to bringing the Beloved Community to our town.

Therefore, we ask for your donation, in any amount, to help these children be able to attend Peace Camp.

You can find out more about the organization that conducts the camp, Little Friends for Peace, and the directors, MJ and Jerry Park, on
their website.

Please make checks out to LFFP and send or bring your check / cash to me, Joyce Lang at 6424 Forest Road. Donations are tax deductible.

You're also invited to visit to learn more about camp...Monday, July 25 - Friday, July 29, 9-1 at the American Legion.

Thank you to all those who've already made a contribution. We appreciate your help and participation.

THIS IS OUR PLEA FOR HELP WITH FUNDING PEACE CAMP SO ALL CHILDREN WHO WANT TO COME WILL BE ABLE TO!

Thank you.
Love & Peace,
Joyce


You may have seen Joyce at Saturday's Market -- she had a yellow umbrella and was seated at the table on the corner near the CPRC table. We hope you'll consider helping Joyce send some children to Peace Camp this summer.
