Update of “Heating the Pool” at Camp Howard
Heating the pool is progressing nicely now that we seem to be past the snow! The pad has been prepared for pouring a concrete slab which will take place late this week or early next week. Heaters and fixtures have been ordered and the technicians are on top of having the pool ready to go well before camp begins.
The pool gets covered with a “rhino cover” at the end of the summer and it is removed in late spring. It will be removed a little earlier this year to prep for the heating process. Everyone is excited about the pool getting a heater – especially me. I am excited about it because it has been the number one complaint of kids for the past 15 years. Thanks to the Champions of Faith fundraising Dinner this past fall, we are now financially able to do it.

Seton Catholic School Play, SSMO trip by Chartered bus to Sacramento…exciting week ahead!
This week will be an exciting week for me. Life at CYO and Camp Howard is exciting in itself.
What am I looking forward to? Outside of CYO I am looking forward to the Seton High School Play “You Can’t Take it With You” starring, Madeline Hunter and co-starring, Cheyenne Cunning! The play opens Friday night at St. James in Vancouver and will play on Saturday and Sunday as well. The school could use your support so consider checking it out. Seton High School is a new Catholic High School as of 2009.
We have our Spring AD meeting on Wednesday night. This meeting will be filled with a lot of interesting information for CYO Athletic Directors for the coming 2012-13 year.
On Friday I will leave town for Sacramento, CA. joining some 40 Sisters of St. Mary of Oregon to travel in a chartered bus to see the Smithsonian Museum’s “Women in Spirit” – the history of Religious LIfe in America. I am looking forward to this trip because it caps our 125th anniversary as a religious community. It is the first time in my 30 years as a Sister that we have done anything like this as a community of Sisters.
I will be blogging about the trip from the bus and from Sacrament so stay tuned.
I hope this is a blessed week for YOU too!

Upcoming at CYO/Camp Howard
These next few days I will be unveiling some improvements at Camp Howard to look forward to. I will show you the progress on heating the pool AND what we did at the dining room! We will also be taking you on a work party at the camp so you can see how work parties benefit the camp. Blanchett High School students will be joining us on Friday at the camp. Karen has asked me to come up and help drive so I will take you along with me. Sound like fun? I can assure you it will be so stay tuned!
Where am I? See if You Can Sleuth it Out!
Can you tell where I am? I am at a leadership conference until tomorrow (Wednesday) then back to the CYO office. Are there enough clues here to determine the location?
