Greetings!
It's been a great spring at Re-Member as we've welcomed over 200 volunteers since late February to Pine Ridge.
FIVE bunk beds installed
SIX firewood deliveries
NINE trailers skirted
FOUR decks/steps built
TWO outhouses delivered
THOUSANDS of pounds of food and relief supplies
We look forward to seeing you, if your trip is later this summer, but we want to remind those of you who have not yet booked your trip that there is still space available this season to come see us.
Paula, our new volunteer trip coordinator is doing great work preparing groups for their time with us here on the rez. Get in touch with Paula at trips@re-member.org and start planning your visit.
Those of us full-timers at Re-Member rely heavily upon our part-time staff, the Program Managers who join us throughout the season to keep things running, and we've had a great start to 2011 with Otis from East Lansing, Michigan. Thanks, Otis!
You'll find our latest videos on Facebook, and a number of other great updates below in our "Updates from the Rez" section. We love hearing from you, so please keep the posts coming on our Facebook page.
Through growing partnerships, we're also increasing our outreach efforts across the reservation. From community gardening to food distribution days, to community give aways, we are leveraging the goodwill of our volunteers with the entire reservation, and we are making a difference.
All of these efforts culminate in a program that we hope you find valuable, meaningful and with purpose. If you have any questions or thoughts, please share them with us.
So, when ya comin?
Ted Skantze, Director
