Bursary for Arcatheos and Captivenia Summer Camp 2019
An anonymous donor has provided for up to 8 bursaries to help offset the costs of attending the Catholic Arcatheos (boys’) and Captivenia (girls’) summer camps near Turner Valley, AB during the summer of 2019. The value of the bursaries are for $400 for Maidens (girls age 8-12) and Arcatheos Boys (boys age 7-12) and up to $500 for Bellesera (girls age 13-17) and Arcatheos Knighthood (boys age 13-17).
The intent of these bursaries is to allow for those who may not be otherwise financially able, to have the thrill, adventure and faith building experience of this Catholic camp. These bursaries will be for both Arcatheos and Captivenia and will be distributed based on applications received. Applicants must be members of either All Saints Parish or St. Martha’s Parish in Lethbridge. Applicants are invited to submit their name, age and contact information along with an essay of up to 500 words explaining why they wish to go to the camp or, if they have attended the camp previously, how the experience positively influenced them and helped them grow in their relationship with Christ. Essays or excerpts from winning essays may be published in the All Saints and St. Martha’s Parish bulletins or other Catholic youth promotional material. In submitting an application, applicants are agreeing to having their essay published if they are selected.
Applicants are asked to submit their essays to lethbridgecatholicbursary@gmail.com by March 31, 2019. (For camp attendees of an age or ability that precludes them from writing an essay, a short letter from their parent/guardian briefly summarizing the financial need and reasons for interest in the camp will suffice)
