Summer is coming fast and everyone here at Youth Odyssey is gearing up to make this summer super successful! We believe that camp has the power to change the lives of teens in major ways! Summer camp provides the ideal environment for growth because of its neutrality and opportunities to take safe risks. We also believe that it's our responsibility to make sure our programs are available to every youth, regardless of the family’s financial situation. Every teen that wants to go to camp should have the chance and Youth Odyssey works hard to make sure that happens for youth in the Coastal Bend!
One of the ways we are able to do this is with our Annual Summer Fiesta! The Fiesta helps us raise money for kids who can’t afford to go to camp. This year, the Fiesta will be held at the Corpus Christi Country Club on May 10th from 6-10pm. There will be dinner, dancing, a “pick your poison raffle” (anyone 21 or older can buy a raffle ticket and is guaranteed to win a bottle of booze), and we will also have a live and silent auction. Some things we will be auctioning off will be...
- Open water SCUBA certification + Flight (Valued at $900)
- Dove Hunt & BBQ
- Wine and Cheese Sailing Trip
- Pig hunt for two at the River Ranch (Valued at $600)
- Weekend stay at the River Ranch (Valued at $500)
- A Massage by Massage For The Health Of It
- Custom Artwork from local artist Cameron Walls
- Yeti Cooler with decal
- and so much more!
So, after hearing how big an impact camp makes on kids AND how fantastic our Fiesta is going to be, you’re probably asking yourself, “How can I get involved?” I've listed out a few ways that you can contribute to our Fiesta below.
