With the school year well underway and a new Ozone year
starting as well, we reflected on all the great things to come over the next
two semesters. Here are a few things you can get excited about too, and join in
with us at Ozone!
Cass Trumbo, Bentonville Ozone Director, “Planning for this semester, I'm most
excited about the thing that's coming first: PAINT WAR! I understand that
sometimes it's hard to jump into club when you're new. It can be awkward. BUT
NOT WHEN THERE'S PAINT EVERYWHERE. Paint tears down walls and creates a
beautiful, unifying mural in their place. With butterflies. And flower-people.
Paint War is a perfect opportunity for any former camper or even passerby to
get involved with Ozone. COME SEE FOR YOURSELF!”
Ellie Chase,
Bentonville Ozone Director, “I’m most excited for Great Pretenders, our annual
lip sync competition. It’s awesome to see the hilarious and creative ideas
everyone comes up with and how they choose to perform a song! Plus, the all-city
event is the perfect time to see people from everywhere else in NWA and have a
blast dressing up.”
Matt Morton,
Rogers Ozone Director, “I'm excited for the Spring Break trips! It's
awesome getting to see all of your camp friends from the summer again. I
love the games, the talks, the small groups, and serving the community during
this retreat. It's sweet to give back to the community and to see how
much you can get done with that many people! And… I can't wait for Summit
Retreat’s RAVE 2014!!”
Alyssa Hanson,
Fayetteville Ozone Director, “I'm
really excited about our small groups that meet outside of club. I love
studying the Bible together, talking about our successes and struggles, and
encouraging each other. I'm excited for all the fun activities we do too, such
as playing sports together, attending shows at the Walton Arts Center, cooking
with girls at my apartment, and many other things. This is going to be a great
year!”
Christine
Janssens, Rogers Ozone Director, “I am so excited about regular club events picking up again this
year. Club is such a fun time to see the same people each week, build lasting
relationships, learn truth, and have fun! The friendships that are established
during this time is a blessing to be a part of, and I am so excited to see who
else the Lord brings to join us each week for club!”
Erin Wiltse,
Springdale Ozone Director, “I’m most excited about beginning a new year of the
LEAD program for students and partnering with Mosaic Church. The opportunities
that both of those things present excite me: seeing young adults discipled and
pushed to be leaders, and having more influence in the community with Mosaic in
being able to support families.”
Wes May,
Springdale Ozone Director “I’m super excited about club curriculum, where we
will be going through the entire story of the Bible in a year with ‘The Story’.
Students will be getting a chance to learn more about God’s story and the story He’s written in their own lives!”
Ricky Shade,
Fayetteville Ozone Director, “I'm
really excited about cool and awesome Ozone special events like our kickoff
event Paint Wars, our all-city lip sync event in the fall Great Pretenders, and
for the Spring Break Retreats. Ozone special events give students the
opportunity to connect with their friends they met at Camp War Eagle that they
don't get to see every week. This allows for those camp friendships to continue
well into the year for those students from different cities. Our special events
also draw in counselors from far away colleges like Kansas State University and
Oklahoma State University, which makes it awesome for campers and counselors to
be reunited while in a fun and exciting environment. Special Events rock!
Wait.... Ozone rocks!”
