The Waubonsee students on the Alternative Spring Break were busy yesterday with hard work on the offices of Habitat for Humanity. One student reported that, "[t]his work was extremely difficult yet important to the Habitat for Humanity organization."
At the end of the day, they were able to enjoy some time to reflect on the day over some coffee.

The team of students in Richmond, Kentucky had a surprise for them on Monday morning - SNOW!
The weather forced them to change their plans from working outdoors at a building site to working indoors at the ReStore shop, where Habitat For Humanity sells used household items for discounted prices with the sale proceeds used to help fund other building projects.
Despite the weather and the change in plans, the students are doing great things while on their spring break.

More than a dozen Waubonsee students are in Richmond, Kentucky this week volunteering their time to work with Habitat for Humanity. Their drive from Sugar Grove to Richmond was a time of bonding with some sightseeing.
One of the students reported:
"After eventually arriving at the Habitat for Humanity “HQ” in Richmond, we unpacked our bags and settled in. We discovered that the bed frames are littered with the writings of former volunteers, some hilarious, others ominous. I’m sure we’ll leave something behind for future ASB students and other volunteers to remember us by."
