A Graeter-est Adventure


As I stuff the last set of shirts and indestructible balls into my bag, I am finally getting excited for the "on field" work for Coaches across Continents that is in my near future. This August I am off to work with three fantastic Kenyan programs that use soccer as a vehicle for change. Initially I will be in the Eastland slums of Nairobi and then off to the western towns of Kisumu and Oyugis. The areas vary tremendously from each other but each has community members striving to make a difference for their children's future. I am lucky to be working with them and exchanging ideas on how to affect change in behavior through soccer.

I hope you will voluntour with me over the next month.

PS -- I hear reading these posts with a tasty pint of Graeter's ice cream makes them a bit more bearable. Thanks to Samantha Miller who allowed me to enjoy one last pint of the decadent stuff while setting up this trip's blog.

PPS -- See you in a few Augustin.
