Each session will last one hour and will be held in the PAC (Black Box Theatre). The Third Thursday workshops are free of charge and are all scheduled from 12-1 p.m.

Thank you to the parents who helped all weekend. Special thanks to all the FIELD CREW members – this show would not make it onto the field without them – and to Charlette Oswalt and Jamie Niemeyer for organizing meals for the students.
Thanks also to Charlotte McClellan for the photos posted on the band blog at jaband.blogspot.com. There are more of Charlotte’s photos in the online gallery: CLINTON 2013, and on the JA Band Facebook page.

Students at JA have abundant ways to build a rewarding life found in serving God and others. Chapel, Bible elective, mentoring, service, and initiating small groups are opportunities students can find here. Chaplain John Hugh Tate sees potential for students to develop additional mentoring and small group relationships in the JA community, too.
