Work Around Camp

Moving soda into the store.
Painting
Trying to sleep was very interesting.  It rained all night and the wind blew like crazy.  When we woke up for breakfast it had stopped till after we finished.  Even though it was raining we were still able to get work done around camp.  The group split into two groups.  One group got to work painting and the other got to work doing other jobs.  I was part of the second group.  To start we moved inventory in the store and the we moved to putting up slow down sign and putting up some tiki torches.  After we were done with

that we went to clean the inside of a trailer.  While we were cleaning to stoped raining.  And by the time we finished cleaning the other team had finished painting and it was time to clean up for Lunch.

For lunch we got a special surprise.  We all got into the vans and were taken to a local restaurant to be treated to authentic Mexican tacos, burritos, and quesadillas.  This was very special as this is something that they are not able to do with all the groups that they work with.  We

had a great time and were very thankful for the wonderful lunch that we were treated to.  When we were done eating we got back into the vans to get go back to the campground and get back to work.

When we got back we once again split into two groups.  One group walked around the grounds and cleaned up any and all trash they found.  The other group got busy opening tents and checking zippers.  Due to the fact that Amor works with groups from other countries and states that would be difficult for them to bring camping gear with them so Amor provides these groups with tents.  We went through at least 20 tents.  If the door zipper was broken we made sure to put them in a suppurate pile.  The working zipper tents were gathered and put into storage were they will be till they a group that needs them.  Once we were

done putting the tents in storage it was time to clean up for dinner.

Once again dinner was really good. After dinner some of the group played some soccer with a couple kids that were there at camp because their mom was one of the ladies that served us.  After they went home we got a fire going. We enjoyed each other company till it was time to go to bed. We all went to bed around 10pm so that we could get up early.
