The fundraiser was a success. Organizers estimated that 60 people came through the doors ready to donate, donate, donate. We raised just under $1,000 from Friday night's event that drew students, faculty, friends, and relatives.
We sold out of the homemade rum punch. The Jamaican food we served was devoured. And all-in-all folks stuck around and had fun.
Many of us on the team were surprised how successful we were pulling the two-hour event together. It was magical watching everyone in action.
Many of our silent auction items were sold. And folks seemed pleased with the items they walked away with.
We have our last formation meeting Sunday to talk about community. Wendy e-mailed us today and told us our project during our trip will be digging ditches and painting.
It is hard to believe that our trip is almost here.
