PeaceCaster's Camp a Success!
Our first PeaceCaster's* Camp was a great success! Fourteen youth, ages 11-16, came from all parts of town for a week long skills building camp. Janene Shakir and Mark Steiner co-led the group. The young people applied their new experiences with listening, conflict resolution and respecting diversity** to the development of 3 word videos (look for our YouTube page to be posted shortly). The teen leaders also learned how to record, edit and produce these videos with the help of our wonderful cadre of experts: Rhody Streeter, Matt Sandercock, Laura Morton, Barbara West, Brett Marshall and Derek Poore.
Special thanks to our PeaceCasters returnees who helped lead their small teams:
Savanna Leonard, Amari Dryden, Zach Snipes and Cydnee Cocke.
This camp was made possible by the generous support of the following sponsors:
|
Center for Interfaith Relations |
Central Presbyterian Church |

Epiphany 10% Committee |
George and Mary Lee Fischer |

Harvey Browne Memorial Presbyterian Church |

* Peace Ed inherited PeaceCasters from the Center for Interfaith Relations in December 2010. They donated all of their video equipment. The UPS Foundation is helping us update and expand that equipment.
