Summer Stretch
Middle School Summer Stretch
Tuesday, July 6 • Tuesday, July 13 • Wednesday, July 21
Kids completed grades 6, 7 or 8
Cost is $100 for all three days or $40 for individual days
Several churches in the Stillwater area have traditionally come together each summer to offer the Summer Stretch program for Middle Schoolers, and (with some small tweaks) we’re offering it again this year!
Each event runs 8:45 AM – about 4 PM (except ValleyFair) and begins with a service project, bag lunch, then an afternoon event. Here is the proposed schedule:
Tuesday, July 6: service in the Stillwater area, bus to Bunker Beach water park in the afternoon (bring bag lunch)
Tuesday, July 13: service in the Stillwater area, bus to Como Park Zoo in the afternoon (bring bag lunch)
Wednesday, July 21: bus to ValleyFair all day – 7 PM arrival home (food/treats purchased at VF)
These days are open to all kids who have completed grades 6, 7 or 8 and are a great opportunity to invite friends. The cost is $100 for all three days or $40 for individual days.

High School Summer Stretch
Thursday, July 8 • Thursday, July 15 • Wednesday, July 21
Kids completed grades 9-12
Cost is $100 for all three days or $40 for individual days
Many of you know about Summer Stretch for the Middle Schoolers (see above) which involves a few hours of service work followed by another fun activity. We figured, why should the middle schoolers have all the fun?
So, in order for our High Schoolers to be able to gather, have some fun, and do some good work, we’ve designed Senior Stretch July 8, 15, and 21. It starts at 3 PM (so no early mornings!) with some service work in and around the area (inside and outside), followed by dinner and another fun activity in the evening. Here is our tentative schedule:
Thursday, July 8: Local service opportunities in the afternoon, dinner, Can-Can Wonderland in St. Paul
Thursday, July 15: Local service opportunities in the afternoon, dinner, Valley-Hi Drive-In
Wednesday, July 21: ValleyFair all day, (Note earlier 8:30 AM Start) Return by 7 PM. (with the MS kids, but arrangements can be made to stay later for HS kids)
Sign up is flexible, come to any or all as your schedule allows. Cost is $100 for all three events or $40 for individual events. Senior Stretch is open to any student who has completed grades 9-12 and is a great opportunity to invite friends.
Even though we couldn’t make our PR trip work, I hope high schoolers can find some time to join in for some good service work and fun at Senior Stretch this July!
