Wow what a day! It was full! Out to LosTambos for the ribbon cutting on the water filter system.

Celebration Day!!!  On Monday everyone gathered and we dedicated the new filter system. Filtered and cleaner water for everyone.  Five of the boys from Std 6 learned the process of backwashing and will take control of this regular process.  Five more from Std 5 will observe and be ready to take control of this process next year.

Ms. Lily cut the ribbon at the dedication.

Four of our LosTambos sewing group completed 10 uniform shirts. These were donated to the school to give children uniforms who do not have them. Rose is the group leader and they will continue to make shirts. They are now working on the skirts and are doing a great job. We are very proud of them and all they have accomplished.

Rose is showing her apron, towels and pot holders that she made in class.We worked mostly on projects that could be finished in one day.

 LosTambos school gave us t shirts with a picture of all the students.

 Daisy is peeking out the window at her house trying to stay out of the rain.

Jungle workroom doesn't work as well when it is raining! Makes everything a little humid.

In spite of all the issues Rosanna completed her quilt and is ready to move on to the next quilt.
