KICK OFF MEETING

---

On Thursday, November 15, our entire group met to get the final orientation to the trip. The soon-to-be travelers listened intently.

Some information garnered mixed reactions.

Because the group is over 100 strong this trip, there will be teams of 10-16 people. The leaders meet here for one last information session after the larger group left.

Let's hope the 18-hour bus ride is this much fun!
