I'm Back!

Hey All! Finally got to a place with internet today! So here is what the past week has been like:


Tuesday Nov. 8th:
This evening the whole Corps participated in the traditional Black and White ball; and, my, are we a creative and stylish bunch of people! Here are some photos from the evening:

Thursday Nov. 10th:
So we all thought I was already an Americorps NCCC member, but apparently we were wrong until today. Yup, today me and my fellow Corps members we officially accepted into the Americorps NCCC program in an induction ceremony. The ceremony was much like a graduation, except the opposite, it was welcoming all of us instead of saying goodbye. There were speeches, musical performances, and a walk onstage to receive of 'Certificate of Appointment'. So now I guess you can say I'm really really super duper officially an official Americorps NCCC member.

Out Whole Team (Sun 5)

Saturday Nov. 12th:
Today began our Round One SPIKE projects. At promptly 8am we piled into our vans and took off on the two day long drive to St. Louis Missouri. Saturday night we stayed over in Salina Kansas and although our day compiled of nothing more than sleeping in a van, we were exhausted upon arrival.


Sunday Nov. 13th: Today we arrived in Greensfelder Park in Eureka Missouri, just as the sun was setting. We are staying in a three room building; one room for sleeping, one for eating, and one that is maintained as the parks visitor center


Ahhh, I have so much more to tell you but I am out of time and must return to work! We are working at an event called the St. Louis Winter Wonder Walk tonight!
