Community Service Project at Joseph Smith Historic Site

The Joseph Smith Historic Site was the recipient of the community service project performed by campers from the junior high youth camp from the Cedar Valley-Nauvoo Mission Center that was held at Camp Nauvoo during the summer of 2004. 

These young people gave the maintenance shed a new coat of paint, which improved the aesthetic appeal of the site to visitors. Camp directors Dana McGuire and Nancy Williams stated that it was important for these young people to recognize the need for and to participate in community service projects as part of their discipleship. The Joseph Smith Historic Site is pleased to have provided them a safe environment for learning about the need for community service.
