We organized a refugee expedition to the Great Escape on Tuesday, we invited five or six members of the soccer team, but also opened the trip up to other refugee children living in the Albany area. Tomorrow, the soccer team goes bowling.

Ali said everybody had a blast. We got them free parking and a buffet lunch. Thanks again  to the Army of Good for giving these children a chance to get out of the city, ride roller coasters and other rides, and swim in the water park.

I hope to go next time. This is a great event for these kids, especially in the summer, when most are out of school and with a lot of time on their hands. We’re trying to spread the joy, we focus on the soccer team but also look for ways to bring in other children.

Note:  Thanks once again for clearing out the new Amazon Mansion Wish List, that didn’t take long. The one remaining item, a party kit, is no longer available. Thanks for this support.
