High School Work Camp: June 20 - 26
 This week the Arlington Diocese is hosting their annual High School Work Camp in Shenandoah, VA. The Diocese is sending 800 kids contributing to a total of over 1300 volunteers. They will be working on over 160 residences in Shenandoah to help make them warmer, safer and/or dryer. Good Shepherd has a fantastic group of student and adult volunteers attending this week. We sent 27 students, 6 adult leaders, 5 contractors and another 6 adults to help with security. The week got off to a wet start as the GSCCYM caravan headed out Saturday night. But they soon settled in with some great games and activities during the orientation on Sunday. It truly is a fantastic and life changing week for our high school students. We’ll have daily updates on the blog as well as some brief bios of all the students attending, so stay tuned.  |  |
