Our first
day in Anse La Raye for all the project teams. After breakfast, the teams
headed off to town in the vans: Infant School (confusing name as it is K-2),
Kiddies Homey Day Care (0-2 years), Preschool (ages 1-5), Primary School
(grades 3-6 and ages 8-12), and
Secondary School (grades 8-12) . In the afternoon the SeaWall, Roving
CareGivers and Health Clinic teams also traveled to Anse La Raye to begin work.
The EarthBox team stayed at JJs, reviewed videos, with confidence that the
boxes are in country and just need to be collected from Customs.
Team
reports in the evening were detailed and spirited. The day was described as
great, wonderful, outstanding, awesome and terrific. Bud told us that: "We are engaged as
short term volunteers in human and economic development" and reminded us
that this will be a slow process. The highest of praise was Bud's concluding
remarks that " I've been with many teams and this was, without question,
the best first day I have seen."
