This from Breandan-
If you bring a tent, there is plenty of space to camp. A very nice gentleman is allowing BWB to camp on his property and have use of the showers and water in the house for as long as we are working. Food is taken care of. The people of Cedar Rapids and the surrounding areas have been baking lunch and
dinner everyday and setting up in scattered schools and churches,
offering free meals for volunteers. Its a nice set up. I encourage
people to come down.
Anyone planning on heading that way, Call me. I'll get you set up - Breandan McNulty - (847) 712-9336.
