The Half Moon Bay Review-Coastside kids spend summer helping others

The Half Moon Bay Review: "Coastside kids spend summer helping others
By Stacy Trevenon--[ stacy@hmbreview.com ]
Summer fun took on new meanings of altruism in temperatures unheard-of even in the recent local heat wave.

From June 25 through July 1, 27 high-school-age Coastside teens, all members of the Community United Methodist Church, went to the High Sierras with the Sierra Service Project.

This Sacramento-based program, run by the Methodist mother church, sends youth, college-age counselors and adults to American Indian reservations to do needed construction or repair work on homes of economically disadvantaged residents."
