On Tuesday morning we had quite the experience. Her Excellency Dame Pearlette Louisy, the current Governor General of St. Lucia invited us into her home. We chatted with her for about an hour on topics such as St. Lucia, ourselves, current events, and our GSE experience. It was a pleasure to spend time with an individual of such esteem!
In the afternoon, we were able to see the beginning of the water project that District 6960 has participated in. We ventured high into the mountains to see the construction of the water tank. The tank will hold 150,000 gallons of water and provide service to over 500 individuals who were previously walking long distances to retrieve water, from a source that only worked on occasion. The water tank is going to have an enormous impact on the people of St. Lucia the project is also being managed very well by the local clubs!
