“We have a serve team that works on new ways to serve the community and the school. They really wanted to do this for awhile, and they finally worked out all the details and planned it,” Kate Shanklin, Student Action Leadership Team (S.A.L.T.) member and senior, said.

The serve team is a small group in S.A.L.T., and the students involved plan for this event to draw a large number of teachers.

Shanklin said, “Free food usually draws a crowd.”

In addition to the teacher breakfast, many S.A.L.T. members and other students involved in Student Venture will leave Carmel to attend a national prayer conference in Houston. Shanklin said there are 10 members that will attend, as well as two adult chaperones.

According to club sponsor Kim TenBrink, there are around 200 total members, and Shanklin said the small amount of students attending plans to bring back ideas from other schools.

“We will look at the ideas other schools have and see if it will work at Carmel,” Shanklin said. “At the conference, I think there will be time for worship as groups and individual quiet times.”

Student Venture has used ideas from similar organizations across the country before, such as the See You at the Pole. During this event on Sept. 28, students were encouraged to pray together before school at the flagpole.

TenBrink said, “Internationally and nationally, this is an organization that helps students develop the physical, mental and spiritual areas of their lives.”
