Next Project: Summer of Service: WASHINGTON DC!

I just realized I haven't put this up here yet. Our team is one of three teams heading to DC for a program called Summer of Service. We'll be living in D.C. for two months and serving as Crew Leaders to 14-17 year olds who will be participating in various service projects in the DC area throughout the summer. I'm super pumped and I can't wait to get going, and to be in DC.

This next two rounds will be a bit different than normal. Since this is a specific summer program , we will have a mini-project in Baltimore for about three weeks with an environmental project called Parks and People. For this project we will be commuting from our Perry Point campus. After that, we'll be moving to DC for the second half of the round, where we'll stay until the end of the first half of third round. So the DC project takes up two rounds, it just changes things around a bit. At the end of third round we will have another shorter project to finish off, which will bring us to Fourth Round, still to be decided.

As sad as we are to be leaving this project, the team is excited to be heading back to Perry Point and living in the houses again. Not to mention we'll be greeted with some much more pleasant weather than it was two months ago when we left.

More soon...
