   I receive email updates from Caleb. And wanted to find out how my two high schoolers here in Kennewick might volunteer to serve in some capacity – short-term, or extended period too. I have a graduating senior and a junior both of them students at Kamiakin HS. I grew up in Billings, MT. 509 591 8494 is my mobile number.

   Hello Jake,

   We actually have other staff members coming from Alabama so the distance may not be as much of a concern as originally thought. We have already accepted all of our staff for this summer but check back with us at the beginning of next year we would love to have you come out.
