MINERVA - The 2010 Town of Minerva Youth Program wrapped up its six-week summer of excitement Aug. 13, with a noisy and fun morning of skits, jokes, awards and recognitions.
The crowd of parents, guardians, friends and campers was certainly frisky, but it was snapshot of what the summer was like at Donnelly Beach. The weather and location contributed to another fun and safe summer for the youth program campers.
MYP staff and support folks worked hard throughout the summer, keeping all the campers safe while allowing them to have great fun.
The following is a wrap-up of the awards and recognitions that were given the morning of Aug. 13, at the Minerva Lake pavilion. After the Minerva Lake sailing program awards, crazy hat, citizenship and most improved swimmer awards were given out.
