T-minus 34 hours

The time is almost here!  Before we go on this adventure, we just wanted to give you a little background on what we will be doing.  

Our departure is scheduled for Saturday at 7 a.m.  We will arrive in Nashville Saturday night, check in to our hotel and go to supper. 

Sunday is our free day.  Every year, we have one day designated as a "fun day."  This year it will be spent in Nashville seeing the sites of the city.  

We will leave Nashville in the late afternoon and arrive in Greenville, SC that night.  

Monday will be our first work day.  Our work day schedules will be the same throughout the whole week.  We will split up into three groups in the mornings.  The three locations we will be working with during the week include the Harvest Hope food bank, Diligent Hands Gracious Hearts and Project Host soup kitchen.  (On Thursday, our last day, our whole group will be going to Diligent Hands Gracious Hearts.)  After eating lunch, we will head to our afternoon activity, helping out at the Frazee Dream Center, an after-school program for underprivileged youth.  We will then get back to our hotel and leave for supper shortly thereafter.  Our nightly activities will change throughout the week.  

We will leave South Carolina Thursday evening and arrive back in Maryville Friday evening.
