Students “JAMM” at OCC
LESLIE DARWIN O’BRIEN
Squeals of laughter poured out of Orinda Community Church fellowship hall as 25 kids gathered for JAMM (Joy, Art, Music and Mindfulness) Camp last week. In celebration of the wonders of nature, the kids took bouquets (in jam jars, of course) to Orinda Senior Village. In addition, they prepared toiletry kits for parents of children who are at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital. The themes for the week were: Monday – You Be You, Tuesday – Neighbors (Who is my neighbor? Everyone!), Wednesday – Courage, Thursday – Awe, Friday – Gratefulness. The kids also made soap and tie dyed t-shirts. Tween/Teen counselors volunteered their time to serve the campers who were ages 4-12. The camp was a joint project of Orinda Community Church and Mindful Littles and was open to all children.
