Getting Ready

The clock is counting down to the arrivial of the fall YES teams, which means a lot of preparation by us. We've been moving beds, chairs, and sofas to different dorm rooms, setting them up, realizing we want that dresser in a different room, moving more things around, etc. I've also been doing some painting in the Carriage House (the dorm house behind HDC).

This sunday evening (the 7th), team leaders will arrive (for the first time in quite a while, we have all of them lined up before training starts, praise God) and the participants will arrive the next sunday.

Thursday, I met with one of our main contacts for community outreach and we walked around the neiborhood a little bit and stopped at some places that are possible community outreach locations for the teams this fall. It was good to meet some people, and learn a little more about HDC's surroundings.

There's not a whole lot to talk about when you've been pretty much preparing for people's arrival and working on another special event (more on that in a couple weeks), so I think I'll wrap this up. I appoligize for the lack of pictures so far, I'll try to rememdy that sometime soon.
