This past winter (2007) and summer we hosted work camps in Xiaoshuitang to help fix their roads

January- made water deposit pool (with oversea students from Bei Jing)
February- home visiting (Yun Nan Committee members)
March- road repair (with Yale students)
April- Coordinator workshop (JIA Yun Nan committee)
July- work camp with SKT global sunny(Korea)
August- work camp
Accommodation and daily live

l We will sleep in 2 rooms, one for female and one for male.
l You can bring the sleeping bag of your own or rent form the center.
l There are insects in the countryside, so be prepared for that.

we should save water and even can not take a shower.
l It is safe in the village, but reminds to pay attention to the dogs and insects.
