Taylor Allen lifts Kwest to a new level



One of the hidden blessings of the summer was having Taylor Allen and some of the former K-Klassic staff move to Kwest. Now that Klassic will be hosting urban kids as Kids Across America launches another new kamp, we have the honor of collecting some of their staff to help us out with our kids.

Taylor Allen transferred kamps to become the Kwest Scheduler and Athletic Director. With his administrative and organization gifts, he plopped right into the middle of our crazy schedule and kept us all going in the right direction. He was responsible for all of our daily schedules, kamper awards, and overseeing all the equipment on a day to day basis (as well as running a small group, speaking and teaching, and making sure we didn't miss any of the small details that make the Westside awesome).

He took us to a new level. In Smitty's words, we are definitely "flying higher" since he arrived.

Taylor is in Florida this year helping direct K-Life kids to a deeper walk with the Lord. His TCU degree and his excellent skills in tennis, hoops, and soccer made him an instant favorite with our staff and kids. We know he is taking his K-Life to the next level too.

We like Taylor a lot. Now that he has Kwest all figured out, we can't wait to see how high we fly next year.
