Wrapping It All Up

Since our program does not have a concluding event, I wanted to do a little bit of a wrap-up.

1. (number one, since this is the most important) Thank you all for being awesome volunteers! I hope you all had a great experience in Hungary/Slovakia.

2. Because you enjoyed it so much, don't you want to stay active in the LE community?!? Seriously, working for LE in my current capacity has been a gratifying and meaningful experience on so many levels (this is thanks to you guys.) I highly recommend that you remain involved, on campus or with Hungary/Slovakia specifically.

3. Finish VSP. I do not want to hunt you down. If you had a great experience with LE, this is one of your best ways to say thank you. In case you cannot remember what to do, here is the summary:
- email 5 photos to lephotos2008@gmail.com
- send a package of
3 postcards describing your experience and thanking the donor
7 letters: (which you completed in your village)
3+ class thank you letters
4+ individual student letters (send as many as you have)
to :Learning Enterprises c/o Maureen- you recieved an e-mail already with her address.

I know you are almost all back to the US, but I also have to remind you to finish you blog posting (from the second village) and America Learns postings (5 total.) Just get it over with. Thanks!

I will be e-mailing you within the week to have you fill out village descriptions. As many of you remember from mid-point break, I had you fill out a piece of paper with info about your individual village. I am making a database, and your participation is vital, especially for the upcoming years.

If you have any questions, please shoot me an e-mail. Once again, thanks for all of your hard work and participation! I miss you all already!
