Summer Staff


The summer staff took a field trip yesterday to Dajabon, a town on the Dominican border with Haiti. Every Monday and Friday, thousands of Haitians come across the border to shop in the market that encompasses the town. At least 20 square blocks of the town are shut down and filled with people selling their wares - mostly every goods from clothing and shoes to housewares, fruits, vegetables, and a never-ending supply of underwear. In this photo, from left to right, are Mike, Jill, Byron, Jenn, Chris, and our new friend Jose. Ok, Jose isn't really a new staff member, he just joined in our fun.

You'll notice that Chris and I are wearing the traditional shopping day mesh shirts that will soon be all the rave worldwide.
