GIN Trip to Hiwada

The stunning weather that we had late last week (April 20-22) was particularly appreciated by a group of 13 Global Issues Network club students as they completed service work in the mountains between Gifu and Nagano, in the picturesque Hiwada Highlands. GIN organized to work at the Hiwada YMCA Summer Camp grounds, helping to prepare the venue for summer retreats that each year involve children from homes across Nagoya. Our volunteers' main task was to varnish the wooden boards used to form platforms for tents. We would like to thank the Nagoya YMCA for allowing us to contribute in this way. The collaborative work, including some self-catering made for memorable learning.
