03/02: Container Packing on 03/07

3/5/09: This 40' container may not look so mobile right here, but it's about to be loaded with all manner of good stuff and shipped around a few oceans until it arrives in the Indian Ocean at the port of Mombasa. Then it will be trucked the several hundred miles t us and off loaded with a crane at it's new home, our patch of ground in Lukenya. Joe, Pat's son, shown here, is not making the trip, he's staying behind to keep an eye on his dad.

On Saturday, March 7, 2009, at 8:00 am, we will be packing the container that we are shipping over to Africa.Â For those of you in the area and those that would like to be a part of this epic event, by all means come and volunteer your time or just come to check it out!Â This event should last all day.

The container is at Pat and Alicia Shepherd’s business:

Pelton-Shepherd
812-B Luce Ave., Stockton, CA 95203

If you have any items (medical supplies, children’s clothes/books, other useful items for Mary’s Springs of Hope) you can bring it that morning or contact me ahead of time.

Also, we are in need of someone to volunteer their time to photograph and video the event. If you or someone you know has a knack with the camera and would like to help document the day, please contact me as soon as possible.

Hello, if you are considering coming out to help us pack the container on March 7th at Pelton-Shepherd that would be splendid. However, please contact me for directions as they are a little tricky. Please note that if the weather doesn’t cooperate we will not pack the container.

Take it easy,

Greg
