Youth: Flo, Marilyn, Gabby, Josh, Krystal, Morgan, Jacob, Gabrielle, Ashley, Stephanie, Cassie, Jeff, Grant, Elsa, Betsy, Dana, Ben, Jake, Christie, Stu, Devin
Adults: Jessica, Ryan, Dee, Natasha, John
Where: Seattle and Yakima Valley, Washington
When: July 30-August 6, 2006
What: We began in Seattle with Multifaith Works, doing maintenance at a low-cost home for people suffering from HIV and AIDS. While in Seattle we also visited University Presbyterian Church, Pike Place Market (it closes at 6 pm??!!), and the Space Needle. We then headed east to The Campbell Farm in the Yakima Valley. In addition to our work on the farm (man, I miss that compost station), we worked on various service projects in the area. We also had a blast floating down the Yakima River and visiting Boulder Cave. Best of all, though, were the bonds that were formed by the end of the trip. Many of us started the week as strangers but we all ended the week as friends. I can't wait to see where things go from here!
