9:00 AM Work at Sites
NOON Lunch at Sites (Bring your own lunches)

(Students are strongly encouraged to go home or go to a friend’s home to shower during this break, because we only have one shower at church. However, if they need to stay, they should make arrangements and bring soap, shampoo, change of clothes, etc. to shower at the building.)
6:00 PM Evening Meal/Worship at Lipscomb*
8:30 PM Wrap Up/Pick up from Woodmont/Go Home & Sleep!
Workcamp concludes at Lipscomb’s campus on Friday night, June 7th, with an informal banquet, media presentation, and a period of praise & thanksgiving. We expect to conclude by 9:00pm on Friday night.

Good news, middle schoolers! I just found out that you can sign up for Mission: Albany for a few more weeks until we fill all of our spots! We need applications by June 16th at the absolute latest. Encourage friends to apply as well!
Visit our Forms page to find the application.
Parents, please email me if you have any questions about the trip.
Also, if you (or your student) would like to go, but you feel like there’s something standing in your way, just let me know.
Without your help providing ladders last year, Matthew would still be on that roof.
If your family has a step or extension ladder that you wouldn’t mind parting with for a short time this summer, we’d like to borrow it for Nashville Workcamp.
We’ll be painting houses for Workcamp from June 2nd-7th, so we would need you to drop off your ladders between the 26th of this month and June 2nd. Please write your family name on the ladders so we remember who they belong to, and you can drop them off by the columns on the 26th or 2nd. If you need to come at another time, please contact us to let us know.
They will be ready to return to you by Sunday, June 9th.
If you can loan a ladder to us, please email dsessions@woodmont.org and jbaker@woodmont.org to give us an idea of how many to expect.
Thank you very much for your support!
Now that we have our results from the Pancake Breakfast fundraiser, I am pleased to announce an official deadline and price for our Middle School Mission trip to Albany, Georgia.
Applications will be due by May 19th along with a $100 deposit.*
The total cost of the trip will be $230 total (or $130 after the deposit). The incredible support shown at the Pancake Breakfast lowered the cost by $70 a person!
The full total will be due by June 23rd, and students are encouraged to raise money by writing letters to people that do not attend church at Woodmont (as to avoid overwhelming the same group of people with requests) or by any other means necessary, if they so choose.
All middle school students, 6th-8th grade, are encouraged to apply. If you’d like to know more about the nature of the trip, you can learn more here.
*If, for some reason, there is not room for a student, or they are not selected as a member of the team, this deposit will be refunded after May 19th.
We had originally scheduled a Medina information meeting for tomorrow at 5:00 but we will need to reschedule for next Wednesday, May the 8th at 5:00 in the teen center.
Again, the new time for the Medina Informational meeting that, if you can, would be a really good idea for all teenagers and parents to attend, will be Wednesday, May 8th at Woodmont in the Teen Center at 5:00 pm.
Hey everybody! It’s time to get your Nashville Workcamp applications in ASAP! The deadline to have your application is April 14th… That’s this Sunday! If money is an issue, we can take that later, or work out another plan, but we must have the application by this Sunday. Nashville Workcamp is always one of my favorite things in the summer and I want all of you to be able to experience God’s gift of losing yourself in serving others.
Go to the “Forms” tab at the top of this page, find the Workcamp link, print it off, fill it out, and turn it in.
Hey families with middle school students!
I’m sure you’ve been wondering more about the Middle School Mission Trip to Albany, Georgia, and I just received a great resource for you!
My friend, Tommy Johnson, youth minister at Westwood Church in Albany was kind enough to write a letter detailing what the week was like for his group last year. We will be teaming up with the Westwood group not only during this week, but also during Jr. IMPACT as we did last summer.
So, if you’re interested in learning more about the trip, check it out here: Mission Change Letter 2013.
We are currently accepting applications for the trip, and you can find out more about that here: Apply for the Middle School Mission Trip.
We are now officially accepting applications for the Middle School Mission Trip to Albany, Georgia!
The application can be found here: Mission Albany 2013 Application
You can apply by turning in the application to the black mail box along with a $100 deposit. The deposit will not pay for the entire trip and we will reveal the total cost once we have a clearer picture of the number of people going and how well we do at the pancake breakfast fundraiser. But, as always, if money is an issue please let me (Jesse) know because we have scholarships available and money will never be a reason why a student does not get to participate at anything at WoodmontYG.*
We are also requiring five (5) hours of service that must be done to qualify for this trip. If you have already logged some hours (must be done between August 2012 – June 2013) be sure to mark them down on the Albany Service Hours Form.
If you have any questions, feel free to email me. I’ll be happy to help!
*Space for this trip is limited, so if a student is not selected, this deposit will be refunded.
We are now accepting applications for Workcamp 2013!
If you are a current 7th-12th grader, we would love for you to join us for an amazing week of service and worship with several other local youth groups. You can ask anyone who went last year, this is a great week!
Cost will be $130 which includes dinner each night.
The application can be found here: Workcamp 2013 Application.
Each student will also need a Woodmont notarized medical authorization form if we do not already have one on file.
Both your form and money are due no later than April 14th. The Workcamp board needs accurate numbers at that point to put crews together, so we cannot accept late applications.
Workcamp is June 2-7th.
We are officially accepting forms for IMPACT Jr. 2013! This is a great event for all current 6th-8th graders, and I would love for everyone to get to be a part of it!
Total cost is $175 (if you made a $25 deposit, then you only owe $150 now), and all forms and money need to be turned in by May 5th at the absolute latest.*
(There is also a $20 housing deposit that is paid the first day of the event and refunded upon check-out.)
You can find the application form here: IMPACT 2013 Camper Application.
Each student will also need a Woodmont notarized medical authorization form if we do not already have one on file.
IMPACT is June 14-17.
*Seriously, I mean it!
Everybody welcome your 2013 WoodmontYG interns!
We’re overjoyed about the team God brought together to serve with us this summer, and we can’t wait to spend more time with them!
Click on the image above to visit a Facebook group we made to help you get in touch with them and send them an encouraging message. They’re all excited to be with us this summer, and I’m sure they’d love to hear how excited you are to get to know them!
