CATHEDRAL MARY OUR QUEEN PARISH & SCHOOL 2013 YEARBOOK

Summer Work Camp
As always, we wrapped up our school year
with our own Baltimore Summer Work
Camp. Our group of 15 high school students
served the community in different ways, while
having fun and making friends in the process. We
worked at The Samaritan Woman where we
harvested the vegetables, mulched, and cleaned and
painted the house. The students also worked at
the Baltimore Station with men in recovery. We
visited Symphony Manor and made necklaces,
painted, and played BINGO with the
residents. Mid-week we took a much-needed
break to travel with 50 of our children, parents, and
teens to Kings Dominion for a day of fun and
adventure!
SMILE
At the beginning of August, 30 seventh,
eighth, and ninth graders joined members of three
other parishes, Immaculate Conception, Nativity,
and St. Joseph’s Cockeysville, in yet another
Baltimore Summer Work Camp called SMILE –
Summer of going the extra MILE!! Students
gardened to maintain the estates at the Samaritan
Woman, picked vegetables at First Fruit Farm for
the Maryland Food Bank, and worked with the
elderly at Broadmead, Arden Court, Blakehurst, and
Stella Maris. They also made food bags for
Catholic Relief Services to be sent to Haiti. As an
end of the week treat we traveled to Hershey Park
with more than 150 people. Our Cathedral youth
love to participate in service and have a great time
doing it.
