2022 Summer Creative Arts Day Camp
Equip to Serve volunteers returned from an energizing and successful five day camp at the Holy Spirit Center in Maggotty, St. Elizabeth, Jamaica. Participants of all ages attended to learn their choice of keyboard, acoustic and bass guitar, vocals/choral and remedial reading/writing.
On the last day of camp, a concert was held for all of the music camp participants to show their talent and progress. Many students expressed how valuable the camp was in introducing them to music instruments and music theory. As well, they loved interacting with team members at lunch and snack times!
The Equip to Serve team enjoyed and valued working closely and spending time with Father Mark Bzinkowski and Marta Socha at Holy Spirit Center - see you again next year Father Mark and Marta!
2020 & 2021
The COVID pandemic resulted in the cancellation of all teaching trips, but we were able to send down five shipments of music instruments, music curriculum, art supplies, classroom teaching aids, as well as used clothing and shoes to provide aid/relief of hardships & poverty due to Covid.
