Charley’s Campus Comments

 

A spring clean-up day for the UCSC has been scheduled for Saturday, May 31 beginning at 8:00 in the morning.  In addition to the usual cleaning that needs to be done on the inside of the UCSC, we have a number of additional projects that need attention this summer.  These include:

 

1.    Scrapping and painting of the side 

       porch.

2.    Mulching around all the landscaping 

       areas.

3.    Hanging sheet rock in the basement

       utility room.

4.    Finishing the installation of ceiling

       tiles in basement.

5.    Installing a couple of doors in the 

       basement.

6.    Repairing front and side screen doors

       of  upper level.

7.    Replacing broken bathroom window on 

       upper level.

8.    Repair or replace a couple of cracked 

       vinyl siding pieces.

9.    Finish trim work in the basement. 

10.  Repair leaking bathroom faucet.

 

            As you can see, we have a number of projects that need to be completed this summer.  If you have skills in any of the areas listed above we could really use your help on the 31st.  If you would like to take on any of the above projects, please contact Charley prior to the 31st so we can identify the items you will need in order to do the job.

Youth and Family News

 

 Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who helped with set up, clean up, and bringing dishes for the Senior Banquet!!!  I thought it was wonderful.  Thanks to the four graduates, Austin Washum, Callie Wilson, Camee Taylor, and Michael Wallin for allowing us to celebrate their graduation with them!  We need to give special thanks to Jerry, Traci, Raegan, and Parker Green; Brian, Jennifer, Zack, Kelsey, and Ally Eells; Janie and Hastings Hale; Debbie and Erica Gallagher; Katie Bazzell; and Angie and Nicolas. They did the decorating and the arrangement of tables and chairs which made everything look so pretty.  Thanks to Angie as well for her lovely work on the Senior Banquet flyers.  Again, thanks to everyone who helped make this day special for our graduates.

 

Our Spring Retreat is coming up this weekend.  If you need a liability and behavior form (which must be signed BEFORE you get on the bus) let me know ASAP.  I will also need to receive your $60 before getting on the bus!  Don’t forget to bring old shoes and old shorts and an old shirt to raft in.  You will need a sleeping bag and pillow as well as towels and toiletries.  Danny Claiborne will be leading our devotionals, so please bring your Bibles.

 

There are several email addresses that I still don’t have.  If you would like to get updates on youth activities, send your email address to:  roydavidhawkins1@yahoo.com.

 

Have a blessed week!

Roy
