RAINBOW CAMP

Gilmour Knights prepare hot dogs and hamburgers for the children of Rainbow Camp, a weekday summer activity for inner-city children in the basement of St. Augustine Church.  Activities include setting up the grills (kept in garage storage and set up on a tree lawn), cooking the food, serving food and beverages, and preparing games for the children in school areas and in the park across from the church building.  The children eat in shifts as their activities are rotated throughout the day.   Time commitment is approximately 6 hours plus travel for 5 or more brother knights.  This is a Greater Cleveland Chapter activity that may involve upwards of 30 knights, so all are welcome to participate.
