15: June 13, 2007 - Summer Kickoff
I wasn't able to be there, but all reports were that the Summer Kickoff (and Ice Cream eating) was a big hit! Jill led some games, the group took a "field trip" to the garret(*) of the manse, everyone ate some ice cream, Ellie was adorable, and Liz and her friend Abby put on a gymnastics exhibition...

* What is the garret, you may be asking yourself? For that matter, what is a manse? The answer is that the Church also owns the house next to the Church building, as a residence for the Pastor - this arrangement is also called a manse. On the top floor of this house there is a room (which could be referred to as a garret) that we are trying to claim as a Youth Room! The idea is that we can have a place of our own with a TV, couches, maybe a little refrigerator. As we head into the Fall, we want to pick a time other than after Church on Sunday to meet. Having our own special place can help us build our own special Youth Group!
