St. James' Episcopal Church Prince Caspian Super Saturday Event June 28, 2008 Based on the novel "Prince Caspian" from the Chronicles of Narnia Series by C. S. Lews

Eleven children from kindergarten through grade 5 attended the Prince Caspian Super Saturday event on Saturday, June 28 to celebrate and explore spiritual themes from the movie Prince Caspian, based upon the novel by C. S. Lewis from the Chronicles of Narnia series.

The Super Saturday event included storytelling, games, crafts, as well as a discussion, and question-and-answer period for the older children, and a “trip to Narnia” for the younger ones. The children enjoyed a delicious lunch provided by Kurt Hilderbrand. Special treats including Rice Caspian Treats, Ancient Treasure Mix, Gumdrops, Veggies and Dip, were donated by Regina Jenkins and her committee. Gretchen Scheel led a team of youth and teens who donated their time to conduct games and award prizes. Craft activities for the younger children took the form of mask-making. The older children drew and painted large portraits of various Narnian characters such as Aslan, Susan, Reepicheep, and Prince Caspian. These paintings and a sample mask were displayed in the church afterward for all to see. 
 
A special thanks to all who helped make this such a success: Father Kelly, Mary Ellen Maruschak, Louise Thorne, Michele DeRhodes, Gretchen and Lydia Scheel, Patrick Shamrock, Rachel, Kent and Walter Hilderbrand, Sharyn Fees, and John and Barbara Wigle. Thanks also to Bob Maruschak for videotaping and Doug Hotchkiss who set up tables and chairs and assisted with clean-up afterwards.  
 
More Super Saturday events are being planned for the future, so watch for the dates!
