In three days we depart, and thank goodness Katie will be with us. Laid-back but reliable, Katie’s probably the one we’re going to turn to when we need sunscreen, bug spray, shampoo…socks, hair elastics…you get the idea! A stylist by trade, she’s definitely going to be the best looking in the 100 degree weather too.

So compassionate she votes for the underdog on American Idol thirty times in a row (true story), this will be Katie’s first time devoting a week to volunteering. We welcome her!
