STELLAR SUMMER CAMP – DONATIONS NEEDED
We have 85 kids registered for our Stellar summer camp this July! To make the camp an out-of-this-world experience, we are in need of donations. There is a rocket set up in the church entrance to collect donations (*which can be dropped through the porthole) 🚀🌙
*If you are donating money or gift cards, please put the donation in the parish office mail slot instead of the rocket.
Take a look at the list below and see what’s needed:
- Gift cards (Costco or grocery store) to help cover the cost of snacks. We have 150 (including kids and team) to feed over the course of 5 days. We need $600 in order to feed them well and make this a Stellar experience!
- Empty 2 litre pop bottles. It doesn’t matter what kind or colour, as these will be painted and turned into jetpacks. We need 50 bottles total.
- Spray gun. This will help speed up our painting process!
- Grey felt moving blankets. We are looking for 5 or 6 grey felt moving blankets to turn into a moonscape.
There are also specific items that we need to purchase. If you’re interested in helping to purchase any of the items below, contact Lorie at volunteers@annunciation-ottawa.com.
- Black Kraft paper roll: Preferably as wide as possible.
- Black plastic sheeting or black tarps: Preferably as long and wide as possible.
- Silver emergency blankets. We are looking for approximately 20 blankets. Many come in packs of 10.
- Silver, iridescent or black foil fringe curtains: We are looking for 4 pairs to make something fun for the kids to walk through.
- Space stickers for the kindergarten group.
