High School Youth

Youth Mission Trip, July 10-17, 2010

We will be traveling to Houghton, Michigan in the Upper Peninsula, leaving Saturday morning, July 10, and returning late on Saturday, July 17. During the week, Monday through Thursday, we will be painting and doing light construction work on homes in the Houghton area. We will be staying at Houghton Grace United Methodist Church.

Total cost for the trip will be approximately $250. This money covers the cost of our lodging and food while in Houghton as well as our transportation costs. We are hoping to lower the cost through fundraising. This cost does not cover meals while traveling and recreational activities while on the trip.

We are asking for a $50 deposit to secure a spot on the trip with the balance due early in June. Please complete the statement of intent and return to the church office, along with the $50 deposit, on or before Monday, February 1, 2010.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Mike Yarmy, trip coordinator, at mike@darkspark.com.
