Our last day of work has come and gone which means we will be on our way home tomorrow. After breakfast we split up into groups and took off. Jenny took a group to the Damiano center where they spent time sorting clothing for a program that allows individuals in need of clothing for a job interview or whatnot to find an outfit free of charge.
Chris' group spent their day at Solid Rock men's shelter pulling weeds and staining a wheelchair ramp.
My group probably had the hardest work. We helped to set up and serve a picnic for the volunteers of Union Gospel Mission out in a beautiful park on the coast of Lake Superior. We helped not only by serving lunch but we helped by playing in the egg and water balloon toss competitions, to break the piƱata, and to test out the volleyball net. The kids who went with me will tell you it was the hardest thin they have had to do on Wildfire to date. ;)
After our work day we took off for Amnicon Falls a great stat park full of waterfalls to play in. It was a great trip. But more on that later!
I am going to keep this short tonight because I am exhausted, but I will do my best to write more on our way home tomorrow!
Until tomorrow,
Jonathan
