Some days, it feels like a garden fairy must have stopped by overnight.

The weeds are gone, the plants are trimmed and cared for, the tomatoes are staked, and everything looks neat and healthy. But the truth is, there is no fairy.

It’s Scotty.

Behind the scenes, Scotty spends countless hours caring for our community garden. He gives his time, energy, and attention to every little detail, making sure the garden can thrive and continue providing fresh produce for our community.

Many people see the harvest, but not everyone sees the work that goes into it. We are incredibly grateful for Scotty and all that he does. He is truly a blessing to our Corps and our community.

Thank you, Scotty, for helping our garden grow and flourish.

Today, our campers traveled to Hands-on House, Children's Museum of Lancaster, where learning and play go hand in hand. The kids had an amazing time exploring interactive exhibits, using their imagination, building, creating, experimenting, and discovering new things along the way.

From learning about STEM concepts and different trades to working together and solving problems, there was something for everyone to enjoy. The smiles, laughter, and excitement throughout the day showed just how much fun learning can be.

A big thank you to the staff at Hands-on House for providing such a wonderful experience for our campers. We came home with tired feet, happy hearts, and lots of great memories.

Another great day at our educational Summer Camp.

We started the morning with a good breakfast and then welcomed Julia from SARCC, who talked with the kids about healthy boundaries. Thank you, Julia, for sharing such an important lesson.

The kids also worked on crafts and learned about different professions. Taco Tuesday was a favorite at lunch, and the rest of the day was filled with indoor and outdoor games, plenty of smiles, and time together for our daily devotion.

Friends, seeing the fire downtown has been heartbreaking. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who has been impacted, whether you lost property, were displaced, or are simply carrying the weight of what happened in our community.

We are especially grateful for the brave first responders who have worked tirelessly through difficult and dangerous conditions. We also want to take a moment to thank our incredible volunteers who immediately made themselves available to help. Whether preparing, serving, or delivering hot meals. We appreciate you.

Please continue to keep everyone affected in your prayers, along with all those who are still working to provide assistance and support.

What a great first day of camp. The kids had lots of fun playing indoor and outdoor games, getting creative with crafts, learning about different professions, and even trying some basic ballet moves.

There were plenty of smiles, laughter, and new experiences all around. We’re off to a great start and can’t wait for Day 2.

A big thank you to Wendy from Lebanon Federal Credit Union for spending time with our summer day camp kids and sharing the importance of saving money. The children enjoyed learning practical ways to save, make smart financial choices, and build good money habits at a young age.

We are excited to kick off our Educational Summer Day Camp today.

A special thank you to the amazing team from AmeriHealth Caritas Pennsylvania for bringing their Mobile Wellness and Opportunity Center to our camp and teaching our kids about health, wellness, and healthy living.

We are grateful for this partnership and the opportunity to invest in the lives of local children this summer. Stay tuned for more pictures and updates from camp.
