April 22nd Knight's Dinner

The link to register for service on April 22nd has been established.  It is: http://signup.com/go/vW9sNN  As mentioned, this service is eligible for silver cord hours.  Also, due to limited fundraising opportunities for NCYC participants, we are considering these service opportunities as a way for participants to offset a portion of the costs associated with the trip.  Students currently in grades 8-11 are encouraged to help. We will be helping serve dinner for an evening with the knights. Servers are asked to wear black pants and a white shirt if they are able. Thanks!
