Time Capsule – Dominican Republic – Spring Break Service Adventure – April 15 – April 22, 2017

Hola Session 4 Students!

Spring break was a blast from start to finish, and we’re so glad you chose to spend it with us! It’s really great to see young students such as yourselves dedicating your spring break to helping to make a community a better place here in the DR. There was a lot of physical activity, but you guys were troopers, and we were all so proud of you and all the work you put in!

Here are some of our favorite memories from session 4:

-Yoga on the beach

-Ben’s epic guitar sessions

-Evening mentor groups and discussions. You guys were so open to discussion and strived to gain a better understanding of the issues facing the local community, and we applaud you for that!

-Seeing you all work together to divide and conquer the tasks at the bottle house site

-Playing with the children in the Severe community

-Tostones lessons!

-Pool parties at the lodge

-Ziplining into the lagoon and braving the sinkhole!

We hope you all are having an amazing year, whether you’re back at your high school or have moved on to college or another adventure. We will always cherish the experiences we shared as a group here in the DR, and we would love for you to come back and visit us some day!

-Your DR Spring Break Staff
