5 days and counting

So yeah, I finally made it to Colorado, and yeah, I've been here for like 5 days.  It has been great, but I've been staying very busy.  The five of us trainers who have been here, and Courtney who came today, have been working hard to prepare for training.  We've loaded 3 Ryder trucks and a van of stuff to bring up the mountain to the YMCA. Then we had to unload most of it, and organize and set up the stuff for our training room. On top of that, we also have to plan our lessons, make sure we have everything, and make sure we know every little thing we need to train on.  It's been intense, but everything is coming together.  Our full time staff is amazing in helping us, and has been working so we can do this for a whole year.  It's amazing how much work they've put into all of this!

Tomorrow the rest of the summer staff comes.  Our supervisor feels like we're ready, but I don't know if I am. I feel pretty good about the first couple days, but I don't know how long things will take. It is going to be a whirlwind of events.  Tomorrow I also find out my fellow crewmate and where I will be going this summer.  There are a lot of new cool things about this year, and I can't say much to give it away, but I know this summer will be blessed in every way!

In 3 days time...

Just a quick update on what's been going on lately.  I know it's been forever since I've updated.  But it's summer, I've completed my sophomore year of college! Crazy stuff.
So my summer plans are to work with Group Mission Trips again with their Week of Hope program.

I plan on updating here again as I did last year as often as I can.  I don't know yet where I'll be spending my summer, but I'll find out when I get to Colorado for training. And what's great about that is I leave in 3 DAYS! It's going to be an early morning as my flight is at 7 in the morning, and stops it Texas, but it will be an adventure.

What is new about this summer is that I am going to be a trainer this year, and so I go a little bit earlier.  This new responsibility is a bit nerve-wracking, but I'm sure it will be good experience and God will teach me through it.

So I'll be updating again as soon as I can with more about my summer and training, in the meantime, I cannot wait to meet my fellow staffers, I know they will be a huge blessing to me this summer!
