KAA-YOU KNOW!

For the first time ever, Bridges left behind the van in Kokomo, Indiana and ventured out on a charter bus, where the kids (& staff) were able to sleep at least a little more than we would have on the van for the 12 hour ride to Missouri. What were we doing in Missouri? We were none other than heading back to one of our favorite places: Kids Across America Kamp! Our 8 days at kamp are some of our favorite days during the summer. We had a ton of new kids join us this year, and for the first time brought high school student to kamp as well!

2009 End of Year Awards

Without even realizing it, the end of the year passed us by, and now the summer is already half over. Time has been flying by as Bridges Outreach has been extremely busy these past couple months with our end of the year awards, taking kids to camp, hosting a successful golf outing, and beginning Summer Slam.

The 2008-2009 school year has been a great success as we have served over 70 elementary students, 250 middle school students, and 50 high school students. This past Spring we extended our ministry to the kids at Lafayette Park Middle School. Next year we hope to reach out to Maple Crest as well, putting us in all 4 middle schools!

Here are some pictures from our End of Year Awards banquet.
