Farewells to a great group in Guatemala

The Team Members spent the last four days on the project completing the final stove and working in the classrooms. The school is preparing for the Independence Day celebrations as well and the classes have been working on projects that they will present to be judged next week.
The last stove was completed on Tuesday and this group finished 3 stoves in total. The Team all worked hard during the stove-building and the families were appreciative of the new stoves. 
The final day is also birthday celebrations and the TMs said their farewells to the kids and the community. The last night in Panajachel was Thursday and we had the final barbecue at the GVI Staff House before heading to Antigua Friday morning.
This group was able to make a real contribution on the project. They had a great relationship with the children and their classroom teachers. We had fun with this group and they were able to enjoy Antigua before they headed back to the US. 
We also have a lot of material and resources that were left by this group that will go a long way in helping us finish off the school year successfully with our last group of Team Members.
