Hey Mom! I’m having a great time down in Kansas City! For the past two days my group has gone to a place called Niles’ Home for Children and worked out in the huge garden in like 100+ degree weather. I’ve been mixing compost, which consists of coffee grounds and dead leaves. We finally finished today. In the afternoon we went to Clara Manor, which is a place for older people and refugees. We met this older couple, Nova and Grover. They taught us how to play Farkle! It is so much fun! Tomorrow and Thursday we’re going to a place called Operation Breakthough. I wonder what it’s going to be like. I can’t wait to get home! -- Raelynn O.
Kansas City has been a blast! Although it has been very hot and today was 108. At Clara Manor, which is a facility for elders and refugees I met Nova and Grover. They are an old couple and they are adorable! Grover and Nova taught us to play Farkle and whenever it was Nova’s turn Grover would always be like “Your turn old lady” and it was so funny. I also met Mikey, a disabled man who was so sweet. Tomorrow we’re going back to Niles like we have the past few days to work in the heat in the garden then we go to Operation Breakthrough and we’ll see how that goes! -- Marissa B.
It has been a really fun…. Just very tired from sleeping right by the exit sign that lights up … VERY BRIGHT! Other wise we worked in the garden and met the sweetest couple at a nursing home. Their names were Nova and Grover; they were like grandparents to me and were so sweet and nice, and they taught us how to play Farkle! I am very glad to be here, but I am ready to come home. Love you Mom <3 -- Julia Y.
