Eighteen teens from the Northeast Ohio area and Michigan camped out and participated in liturgical services, talks, and fun activities at the Shrine of Mariapoch in Burton, Ohio for the Byzanteen Youth Camp of the Eparchy of Parma. The camp was organized and run by the members of the Youth Committee for the Eparchy of Parma. The clergy present throughout the weekend were Bishop Milan Lach, Fr. Marek Visnovsky, Fr.
