Philomath Mary's River Park Day Camp

There is nothing more important then the education of our youth. The week of June 15th was a delightful time full of stories, non competive games, individulaized assistance in sharpening reading and math skills, nature walks, rock skipping on the river and a music program with a guest teacher Marilyn Chambers that shared her percussion instruments and skills as a drummer.

Were man to appreciate the greatness of his station and the loftiness of his destiny he would manifest naught save goodly character, pure deeds, and a seemly and praiseworthy conduct. If the learned and wise men of goodwill were to impart guidance unto the people, the whole earth would be regarded as one country. Verily this is the undoubted truth. This servant appealeth to every diligent and enterprising soul to exert his utmost endeavour and arise to rehabilitate the conditions in all regions and to quicken the dead with the living waters of wisdom and utterance, by virtue of the love he cherisheth for God, the One, the Peerless, the Almighty, the Beneficent.
