Alternative Spring Break
March 5-12, 2011
“The phrase ‘Alternative Spring Break’ is becoming a buzz
word among those who would like to have an alternative to what's seen as normal
spring break. Alternative spring breaks generally mean volunteering, a very
rewarding way to spend your spring break week.”

Alternative
Spring Break (ASB) 2011 for the Catholic Campus Ministries of the Diocese of
Charlotte, NC will have a different “twist”. Our upcoming ASB will incorporate
Service and Pilgrimage and take place Sat. to Sat. March 5-12, 2011…so MARK YOUR
CALENDARS!!
While our itinerary is still being finalized we plan to take a trip up "north"
with stops in Baltimore, Washington, DC and Philadelphia. Our tentative agenda
includes visits to National Shrines, seminaries and Motherhouses of a variety of
Religious Congregations. Opportunities for "service" experiences in Philadelphia
are an integral part of this trip.
Meetings to plan for this trip, fundraising to help defray your personal
financial obligation and a mini retreat are all part of the process we will use
to make sure we are ready to take full advantage of this wonderful opportunity
to visit some of the “hot spots” of our Catholic faith.
Please let us know as soon as possible if you are interested and would like to
receive e-mail updates of this event. Contact Sr. Eileen Spanier, GNSH at
e_spanie@uncg.edu
If, in the past, you have participated in an ASB Trip and would like to be a
TEAM MEMBER contact Sr. Eileen immediately.
