My summer is going to be filled to the brim with service, working, and school. But, I am looking forward to it!
Camp Barakel June 10-16
In less than a week, I will head to Fairview, Michigan to serve a week as an "engineer" at Camp Barakel. I got the opportunity to go for a weekend in January with my youth group, and fell in love with the place. As an engineer I will work in the kitchen, assist with hand crafts, and help in the camp store. I am looking forward to meeting new friends and worshipping God in the nature.

Mackinaw Island June 23-25
Just one week after I get home from Barakel, I will head up to Mackinaw Island with my boyfriend, Seph, his family and their extended family. It is going to be a great few days of exploring, biking, and FUDGE. They say the fun starts when the last ferry leaves!
Usiak Cottage July 2-5
I am blessed with a beautiful cottage right on Lake Michigan. My dad's parents bought it before I was born and it was recently renovated to accommodate my whole family of 16. (It has 14 beds!!)Even if I just get to go up for a few days, I couldn't ask for anything else. Tanning, swimming, going to the farm, and spending time with cousins is something I always look forward to.

Okemos Outreach July 6-12
Mr. Fahy is taking a group of kids to Roseland, Chicago. This part of Chicago is inner-city and very poverty stricken. I am nervous to say the least, but am so excited to be a positive influence on the lives of kids who truly need it!
On Goal July 15-19
This summer camp is one I have participated in for years. I started going when I was just 6 years old, and now I get to be one of the coaches. With all the little kiddies running around, what more could I ask for? It is faith based and is something I look forward to every year.
I am so jealous of your excursions this summer! I will also be going to my family's cottage,except it's only about the size of my garage and we pack 9 people in that thing! Certainly no 14 bed deal :) I hope you have a fantastic summer!
