New Life Church Cadets Host Parent Preview Night

New Life Church Cadets Program Hosts Parent Preview Meeting on August 29 at 7 p.m.

New Life Church Cadets offer a faith-based scouting opportunity for boys and their families. A new year of Cadets kicks off on Wednesday, August 29, at the church with a parent preview meeting at 7 p.m. While the boys get to know each other through supervised games, parents will meet with the Cadet leaders to hear what's new for the 2012-13 season and review the calendar, which includes the fall camp out at Kankakee State Park September 14-16 and a tailgate event at the Chicagoland Speedway on September 22. Regular service projects, badge work, an annual mother-son Christmas party, the winter Pinewood Derby and a spring canoe trip are other highlights of the program which runs September through April.

The $45 registration dues include all materials for the year. The September camp out cost is $20. Cadets is open to boys in 2nd through 8th grade. Scholarships may be available to help with dues for families in financial need. Please contact Head Counselor Frank Zacek at frank.zacek@att.net or call the church at 815-462-0202.
