Our Rotaplast Mission Team


5:45 a.m. Monday: Following early morning rounds at the hospital, Sunday, our team assembled for our group photo then had a day off to visit Antigua. We explored the cobblestone streets of the colonial capital, shopped and rested. We were treated to an afternoon garden party hosted by the local Rotarians who really make this mission possible with their financial and volunteer help. The Ballet Folklorico de Guatemala entertained us with native dances in gorgeous costumes.
Now it's time for a quick breakfast so I can catch the 6:15 bus and greet the families before the first surgeries of the morning.

Garberville California Rotarians Chris Brannan and Dennis Bourassa are located in the upper left of the photo. Brian walker is also from the Garberville club, he is in the upper left quadrant. (the one with glasses.)

Needles to say, the Garberville Club is extremely proud of them, and we want to wish them well!

Thank-you Jerry Meshulam for the blog-site. Keep us posted!

Ernie Branscomb, Garberville Rotarian.
