1) March 24-31, 2007. We will plan specific leave times based on flight cost, and needs of those who register.
2) WHERE WE ARE:
We had a good meeting last Thursday, and watched chapters from Spike Lee's NOLA documentary tonight.
At present we have a handful of folks signed up, but are hoping to take ten CDSP students (in addition to other GTU students or area Episcopalians).
3) TOTAL ESTIMATED COST is approximate $1,000
DON'T LET COST STOP YOU!!!!!
We believe it will be possible to fully cover the cost of the trip through fundraising, and invite the CDSP community to join us in our efforts (more info to follow)
