Travel Team

The travel team has returned safe and sound! Come to our March meeting to hear all about the travel team's exciting adventure!

Conference call- Wednesday the 16th

The travel team is doing well. The conference call lasted about 30 minutes but was very productive. We learned that the sanitation team is ahead of schedule. Bill gave an update on cesspools and the percolation tests and the potential water sources that we are considering. Mike, Jamee, and Joan (she did not talk due to laryngitis problems) gave their progress report on the tiling, concrete, and so on for the bathhouses. They are very happy with way the project is going so far.
In Diana's update, she told us that one of the teachers worked part-time on a radio show. The travel team, along with Joe, and the principal of the school, had a chance to tell what the project meant to them. This radio show was aired and a few of the local parents came to the school to check out the project. Lastly, Diana shared the information that was collected for the electrical team (solar panels and potential installation changes).

Team in Mattru Jong!

Yeah! The team is officially in Mattru Jong. They spent the entire day working today at the school. They said they have accomplished a lot in just one day! I talked to Diana tonight and she said everyone is happy and healthy. Stay tuned for more updates!

Safe Arrival!

Yeah! All team members have successfully arrived in Freetown. The team (Bill, Diana, Jamee, Mike and Joan) will be traveling to Mattru Jong tomorrow morning. Stay tuned for more news. A conference call is scheduled for this Wednesday.
