Taylor Jade here!
The 25 are eating, sleeping and sending some final emails before we board our second flight, into Montego Bay. Jorge Perez (15-year Jamiaica trip vet) gave us our reflection theme for the week: reset. During this trip there will be so many things for which we need a reset. We will gain new perspectives and look and think about ideas differently. Check out our first group selfie of the week. With trip leader Ashleigh Coster's handy selfie-stick, there will be many more to come. See you on the other side!

By Taylor Jade Powell, president of Butler Intercollegiate YMCA On Day 1 of our Fall NYC Service Trip 2015, we spent 11 or so hours traveling from Indianapolis, IN to Staten Island, NY. The car ride was filled with Double-Stacked Oreos, 90s music, Starbucks stops and sleepiness. We arrived at Calvary Presbyterian Church around 9pm, and were welcomed with open arms into its Volunteer Village. After a quick debrief, our small group of seven headed to bed in preparation of our first day of work with Friends of Rockaway. |
