Training

Hello~

We are more than halfway through regular training. The rest of the staffers arrived a week ago, and we found out our staffs on Saturday (only the CDs find out that night). Then on Sunday we have "the picnic" where we create an obstacle course the staffers must complete to find out their staffs. I will be on staff this summer with Nancy, Chad, and Michelle, here in Jonesville, VA (one of ASPs year-round centers).

Tomorrow is County Visit Day. Half of the CDs have left the hill for their far away counties and the rest of us have the night off. Tomorrow I'm meeting with our building inspector, a few community contacts and exploring the county a little more. Even though I've been here so many times for training and wrap-up, I'm just starting to take note of everything like its my county.

CD training was great, the 25 of us got along really well and it was much more relaxed than regular training. Our days are filled with construction sessions, paperwork training, staff management, and much more.

On Friday we go to Johnson City to get our summer vehicles and supplies. Then on Saturday everyone will leave for their counties and we'll stay here, probably go help another center move in, or build showers- yay black plastic ASP showers!
