Entry Background/Description: Camp Rising Sun produces two newsletters a year that are sent out to our campers, staff, alumni, donors, and other friends of CRS. Each newsletter recaps recent CRS events, provides updates on our staff and campers, and previews upcoming sessions and events.

Our Summer 2023 Newsletter included a recap of our April Mini-Camp Weekend, updates from campers, a spotlight on a special fundraiser done by a high school student, a reveal of our 2023 Camp Week theme (Safari!) and a preview of our Annual Night Out fundraiser.
Why You Should Vote for Me: CRS is volunteer-driven, so all aspects of our newsletter are designed and written by our volunteer staff. We gather camper updates from parents via social media, make sure to document events happening in the CRS world, and try to appeal to all of our varied readership with the content. The result is a crisp, clean, and enjoyable read that is full of the spirit and magic of Camp Rising Sun!
