FROM SUSAN OSTER JAN 18TH SPEAKER FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN THE WEBINAR
COMMENTS & SOME PICTURES FROM CLUB'S WORK IN HAITI
From John E---Greetings all – Couple of pictures to show improvements on the soccer stadium have continued well after we began mixing cement for the top rails and balustrades. I really like the newly added coloring and bus shelter type team benches! It is good to see an example of the food dryer that Bruce and Bob constructed and how it is being replicated. I am very pleased that our January 2018 trip has generated such support for the young people of the school which contains all of the computers we provided.
