General Description:  We will be working for the people in Huron County who need a helping hand. Our goal is to be a light in the communities around us for Christ. We try to find work sites through local churches, thrift stores and various agencies in the area. The Rack & Room, repairs to a deck, repairs and painting at a group home, clearing trails for the local conservation areas. These are all sites worked at before and more can be done at them.

Facilities:  You will be hosted by churches in the Huron area including Vanastra Christian Reformed Church, Exeter Christian Reformed Church and Clinton Christian Reformed Church. You’ll stay at Vanastra Christian Reformed Church with showers at the Rec Center.

Work Sites: Opportunities will involve a variety or work sites and may include working at local thrift stores, cleaning up, painting, repairing at different locations, clearing trails, yard work and Habitat for Humanity among other projects.

Day Away: A local beach for fun and games

Transportation: Registration fees do NOT include transportation to and from the sites. Each group of five or more must provide vehicle(s) and adult driver(s), typically small group leader(s), to transport an equal number of participants during the duration of the mission experience regardless of whether you fly or drive to the site. The vehicles you bring will be used to transport small groups to the work site each day so 12-passenger vans or mini-vans are preferred. Cars do not facilitate the transportation of an entire small group in one vehicle, so please do not bring them. If you wish to bring a bus, please check with the Host Team to see if this is acceptable before you make arrangements. If your group is unable to provide van transportation, please have a youth leader call YU to discuss options and additional charges.

For your decision making purposes, the closest airport is London, Ontario. Please DO NOT book airfare until you have received written confirmation from Youth Unlimited that you have been placed at this site.
