Day 2 started bright and early at 8 am this morning. After a lovely breakfast of apple juice, we started to make the blankets. 24 yards of fabric and several hours later, we had completed the 12 blankets for cancer patients. Great job by everyone! We then took a little road trip to break up our day. We ventured to St. Vincent's Hospital and delivered the baby hats to the Maternity Center. We then set off to wander through Woodmans supermarket to look for the food we will be having for dinner. We ended up being very multi-cultural and had taquito's, egg-rolls, maduri lemon rice, fresh guacamole and salsa, fresh mango and papaya, fried plantain, orange chicken and several different types of dessert. At 6 pm. we finally were able to eat and celebrate our accomplishment. Way to go YELL 108!

December 30 - Day 1 of 30 hour Famine
Day one of the 30 hour famine. We had around 12 of the YELL members attend various portions of the day. The first day was spent watching some of the World Vision videos and playing some of the games supplied by that organization. The group also spent a majority of the day knitting baby hats for the group to take to St. Vincent's Hospital tomorrow. The group has been pretty energetic until we shut off the lights at 11 pm - time to re-energize for tomorrow. The kids have been actively using snapchat, facebook and instagram to share with their friends this event. We are very close to our goal of $425 which will feed one child for a year.
