Note from Founder

Submitted by CAMO on Mon, 03/19/2012 - 2:15pm

Note from Founder (Kathy Tschiegg):

All 35 specialty teams have left Honduras, which represents over 85 warm bodies.  

Every year we try to be better from the past and every year we almost reach perfection; but perfection is hard to reach and we can always do better. All the teams this year did a tremendous job working in a different culture and with their counterparts.
