Youth Group News

Last year the Youth Group had a float in the Rusty Scupper's Pirate Daze parade, Festival of People parade in Montesano, Outlaw Days parade in Elma, Logger's Playday parade in Hoquiam, and the Firefly parade.

Eight Youth Group volunteers were among the 18 who staffed the Habitat for Humanity of Grays Harbor booth at the Grays Harbor County Fair in August of 2004. These volunteers sold T-shirts, collected aluminum cans, and raised $72.14 in donations. The Youth Group wants to thank everyone who helped during Fair week!

The Youth Group held a Carnival at the Epicenter in Hoquiam on October 30th. Children in the community had the opportunity to play various games and win prizes. The proceeds from the carnival will be used to help the local Habitat for Humanity build homes for families in Grays Harbor County.

Ongoing Youth Group Activities

A major fundraising activity sponsored by the Youth Group is recycling aluminum cans. If you would like to help by having a recycling box placed in your office, work place or school, call Daniel Hoefs, Youth Group President, at 538-1037.

The Youth Group also sells Habitat for Humanity T-shirts for only $10. 00 each. Sizes available include S, M, L, XL, and XXL. Contact the Youth Group (538-1037) to purchase a T-shirt.
