What is WAVE?

WAVE is what happens here at St. John on Wednesday evenings throughout the program year! WAVE stands for WEDNESDAY AWESOME VOYAGE EXPERIENCE!
What time is WAVE dinner served?

A wonderful, well-balanced meal and is prepared each week for WAVE participants and is served at 6 PM! Each week is a different theme! The meal has a suggested donation of just $3 per person (maximum $15 per household), comes complete with tossed salad, with choice of dressings, anything from hotdogs and hamburgers to glazed ham, vegetables, drinks...oh, don't forget the dessert! Volunteers bring the desserts each week...maybe you have a favorite you'd like to bring!

What menus are planned?

Whenever possible, the menus are connected to the theme for the week!

The first night of WAVE is traditionally our Italian night!
