| Projects for 2018 DR Team |
Based on meetings with the Dominican Episcopal priest and his wife in El Pedregal in late October, here are the projects being considered for our DR mission team in 2018: repairing and repainting the wooden playground structure, Vacation Bible School, sewing classes, friendship bracelet classes, veterinary clinic, our traditional splash party, and perhaps repainting the swing set and benches on the camp's front lawn and the fire circle at the bottom of the stairs leading to the basketball court and then school. For details on all of these, click here.
On December 1, watch this space for information on how to commit to the team if you are interested in being one of the 2018 missioners.
