BREAKING NEWS...

Sad local news: Sunday morning Sarah walked down to the beach a couple blocks from our apartment to go for a swim. When she got there, the area was closed off with crime-scene tape. This article explained why.

Good team news: It's that time again! You know, when we find out what our next project is... although Amiee, April, and Tracey will all be leading it up for Summer of Service in New Orleans, the rest of Eagle Five will be living it up in NEW YORK CITY, working with the Friends of Van Cortlandt Park. For this project, the 7-strong team will be planting trees alongside inner-city youth in NYC's 4th largest park located in The Bronx. With transition, mid-year training, and summer break, it will be about a month before 3rd round starts...
but we are all very excited!

Right now news: The team is enjoying their last few work-days with Highlands County Habitat before we have to leave bright and early this Saturday morning. We will be stopping in Fayetteville, North Carolina to sleep but will be back to our campus sweet campus in Perry Point, Maryland by Sunday afternoon.

Blog news: Since I will be away from the team third round, Eric and Seth are taking over to keep ya'll updated on Eagle Five's inevitably incredible New York adventures. I will do my best to keep you posted on our progress in New Orleans as well, but i can't make any promises (we will be kept very busy!)

Until next time...
Love, Peace, and Bicycle (and/or Elbow and/or Chicken) Grease,
April
