Today we met the eight Dominican teens, and Bryan Liskey, and prepared for our 4-H Day Camp. Before heading over we had time to eat breakfast at the breakfast buffet where the food was amazing and by far the best meal of the day. 
We started with team building activities and get-to-know-you games to learn about the Dominican teens. Afterwards we tie-dyed t-shirts and everyone had a different design. We all took a break and ate lunch as a group in the employee restaurant. Next, we got to pack up all the school supply donations we brought with us and we divided them between three schools. After cleaning up we listened to a lady from the Peace Corps talk about her work with water systems in the village of Veron.
In the evening we all got our own time to go to the beach, swim, or catch up on, much needed, sleep.
Dinner was enjoyable and we had a late night meeting in the pouring rain by the pool. Soon after we experienced a small power outage which resulted in some worried teens.
Next is BEDTIME! Nighty night.

Looks like you all are having a great time. I'm sure the information from the Peace Corp Volumteer was really interesting. I know teen counselors are going to have alot of fun with the children at the day camp.
