Brevard PALs Volunteer at Easter Seals' Camp Challenge

The weekend of May 17th 2008 youth from the Police Athletic Leagues from Melbourne PAL, Palm Bay PAL, West Melbourne PAL, and Satellite Beach PAL came together to volunteer at Camp Challenge.  Camp Challenge is a facility owned and operated by Easter Seals, Florida, Inc. whose program planning is centered on the needs of the individual with a disability.   The 63 acre camp site is centrally located in the State of Florida between Mt. Dora and Sanford.

The Brevard PALs came together on the weekend of the 17th of May to volunteer at Camp Challenge to prepare the facility for summer campers.  Their duties consisted of cleaning and painting the facilities' structures.  It was reported by Leslee Brimer, Director, Palm Bay PAL, Vice President, State of Florida PAL, "...this past weekend was absolutely wonderful!  The kids got so much out of it and truly enjoyed everything.  We worked them very hard but do you know, they never complained?  It was fun for them and they are ready to return."
