We're heading to Crooked Creek Ranch in Colorado June 14th-23rd! It'll be one of the best weeks of your child's entire life! 

Crooked Creek is a resort that was built just for teenagers and it's incredible! Every meal is served to you by waiters and waitresses. They carry your bags from the bus to your room. I've taken over 1,000 kids to summer camp and they all consistently tell me "It was the best week of my life." Trust me, if it wasn't worth it, I wouldn't leave my family for 10 days! Life happens fast. This is one amazing opportunity for your child to get to enjoy being a kid before having to become an adult! - Drew

On June 14th, 140 high schoolers from Greensboro will head to Colorado to join hundreds of teenagers from around the US. There are already over 40 NW Vikings signed up to go. We're taking super nice chartered buses, spending a night in a Denver hotel, and enjoying lots of surprises along the way. 

It's expensive to go, but we as your YL leaders are committed to helping you raise the $. PLEASE don't let $ keep you from going. There has NEVER been a Greensboro YL kid who wanted to go to summer camp that has not been able to go because of money!

Cost: $925 (All-Inclusive)

Fundraisers

Krispy Kreme BOGO Cards
We're selling Krispy Kreme buy one dozen, get one dozen free cards. You get 10 dozen dougnuts free! The card is valued at $80 and only costs us $8. We sell them for $20 (cheaper than buying 2 dozen), making $12/card profit. Last year our family personally bought 2 cards and they never expire! 

Sell 16 cards and make over $200!

Applebees Breakfast
On April 26 we have a YL breakfast at Applebees on Battleground. Kids sell tickets to anyone for $7 and make $5 for each ticket. 

Invite 4 families of 5 and make another $100.

Odd Jobs/YardWork
We have lots of friends who want to help kids go to camp and pay well for hourly work. We've had kids painting at our house this week paying them $10/hour. A couple kids have already raised over $100 each just working on snow days. Some of our friends pay way better. Last year some kids got $50/hour for laying sod. 

Work odd jobs for 20 hours and make $$300. 

Ask For Sponsors
We always do a trash-a-thon in May where we pick up trash off the streets. Kids get sponsors per bag of trash. Get your grandmother, uncle, and 2 family friends to each sponsor you $5/bag. 

Pick up 10 bags of trash and that's another $200.
