Break Away 2008 Off and Running!

What's that going on in the picture at left? That is some of our wonderful Break Away trip leaders, with two Bonner Leaders, participating in a teambuilding activity during our student leader training before the start of the semester. You'll have to ask them just what was going on. :)

We held our first all-participant meeting for Break Away 2008 on Tuesday. We were so glad to see so many excited folks there, and we're sure everyone was so glad to finally find out the trip destinations! (See the links at left for our host sites.)

We're happy to announce that we have some Break Away Program Scholarships available this year. Break Away is a volunteer-driven program, and we rely heavily on the generosity of our supporters to make these intensive service travel and educational experiences accessible to all students. If you are participating in Break Away and would like to apply for a scholarship, please download the application and submit by October 31, 2007. If you are interested in supporting Break Away or other community and civic engagement programs at JSC with a financial contribution, please contact Laura in the Center for Service Learning.
