On Saturday, May 15, 2010, Fredericksburg will be hosting two busloads of Wounded Warriors from Brooks Army Medical Center (BAMC) San Antonio and Ft. Hood for the day. This has been arranged by “Fredericksburg Salutes Our Wounded Warriors” (FSOWW) www.fsoww.org
These Wounded Warriors, about 120 Service Men and Women and their families, will be provided transportation, lunch, side trips, Rock Box tickets and a catered box dinner for the trip home all at no expense to them. This has been made available by the generous contributions of scores of local citizens.
The busses will be arriving at Market Square at about 10:00 a.m. on Saturday May 15th.
This is a great opportunity to express our appreciation to members of our Armed Forces for their service and sacrifice for us.
We invite all those in our area to be there on the square to meet these Wounded Warriors and their families.
Feel free to bring tasteful & appropriate signs that express your appreciation for their service.

From all of us here at YMCA Camp Flaming Arrow, we want to extend to you an invitation, an invitation to this spring's 2nd Open House. Our Open House will be May 2nd from 2 to 5 pm at YMCA Camp Flaming Arrow.
On April 25th, we had our first Open House of the season and Mother Nature blessed us with mist and rain. While this was great for the grass, this may have deterred you. We want to make sure you and your family have ample opportunity to visit CFA prior to summer camp and experience camp for yourself. If you are a first time camper/parent, come on out to see what your child will be a part of this summer! If you are a returning family, simply come and enjoy the spirit of camp!
You might be asking yourself, "I'm already registered, and I have gone to camp before. Why should I come out to the Open House?" And here is our answer, "Because you can earn discounts by bringing friends AND we are also giving things away...camp store gear and also a week of camp! And plus, the horses will be available for pony rides" Can't get much better than that!
Here is what you will see at the Open House:
-Bill will be giving tours to parents, telling them about our summer camp and traditions as well as also showing you the cabins where your child will be staying.
-Several program areas will be open! We will be have some horses available for pony rides, kayaking, as well as archery and the climbing wall will be available. These areas aren't open just for the campers - they are open for you too! Please come and take part!
-Prizes will be given away! Everyone who registers for the Open House will be receiving a ticket for the drawing at the end of the Open House. We will be giving away t-shirts and other items from the camp store, as well as A WEEK OF CAMP!!! All winners must be present to accept.
Discounts you are able to earn:
-Bring a friend to the Open House and you will receive a $5 credit to the Camp Store.
-Have a friend register for summer camp, and earn $25 for each new registration. If your friend registers at the Open House, we will give you receive and additional $25 credit to the Camp Store.
RSVP today...so we know how many cookies to make!! Or if wake up with the camp bug, come on out to CFA! We would love to host you and your family!
