One of the most rewarding experiences during SLI is the community service projects.
In 2009, campers fed the hungry at the Soup Kitchen, refurbished the playground and seating area at The Haven, landscaped a nature trail, planted a garden and cleaned a up playground at SOAR Academy, and organized equipment and supplies for Cancer patients at the Cancer Association of Spartanburg and Cherokee Counties.

On Wednesday June 24, 2009 35 high school students spent one day, 7 short hours, working to improve the community.

There are 250,000 high school students in the state of South Carolina alone ....
With 365 days in the year …
What if?
