A Very Successful Evening

Fort Erie Secondary had a great fund raiser last night at the Old Bank Bistro.  The school's Pomegranate Restaurant served up a great dinner to a very impressed full-house. Proceeds from the event were going to support Dallas Marriot for DSBNi, as well as to the Community Outreach Program Erie (C.O.P.E).  Way to go Dallas!  You are well on your way.

January Team Meeting

Who knew that team building could be so much fun?  With each meeting, people become more familiar, names get easier to remember, and we start to learn more about each other.   A month ago, we were strangers.  After Vietnam, we will never be strangers again.

There is a lot to do to get ready for building a house in Vietnam this July.  The many forms are now getting completed. . . the sooner the better :-).  And this week we had time to share fundraising ideas.  It was great to hear about each others ideas, from spaghetti dinners, to selling T-Shirts (hundreds!! Wow!), to plans for fund-raising activities in schools.  It is already an inspiring team.

Tomorrow there is a fund-raising dinner for Dallas Marriot at the Old Bank Bistro in Fort Erie and it is SOLD OUT!  Congratulations Dallas!

WELCOME !

Welcome to the "DSBNi 2010 - Vietnam" Blog.  This will be home for our news, information, and eventually our thoughts and reflections as our team embarks on an adventure of a lifetime!  In July, we will be building a house with Habitat for Humanity - Global Village half way around the world in My Tho, Vietnam.  This Blog will grow as we get ready, and will culminate with daily team entries once we are actually working at the build site.  You will be amazed!
