Yorkfield Presbyterian Church Youth Fellowship

Think you’re going on the 2012 work trip to Eastern Shore, VA in August? I hope you do.  But I fear you’ve lost track of the deadlines! In the information sheet distributed to youth and families (during the family night, separately to those who were not able to attend), January 1 was identified as the first payment due date.  If you don’t remember this information sheet, click on the link…

Don’t forget our upcoming events to celebrate the birth of Christ! Sunday 12/11 – 6:00pm – Annual Christmas Dinner This year we are taking this show on the road, gathering at Giordano’s in Oak Brook (across from Costco).

A quick look back at the 2010 work trip… just in time to get you pumped for 2011!

Work trippers: Here is the famous “Kim’s Packing List” for the work trip.  Please follow all “which bag does this go in” instructions carefully.  There are FOUR different bags to pack… If you have any questions, let me (or Kim) know. Also, please respond with your ideal T-Shirt size.  I have this for some of you, but not all.  Assume I don’t know it for you, and respond to both of…
