Zambian Team Members Prepare for Minnesota Weather

After a day of recovering from jet lag, the Zambian team prepared for Minnesota's weather by doing a little shopping at Arc's Value Village. Many bought warm coats and winter boots. The Arc Greater Twin Cities donated gift certificates to each team member.

During the welcome on Friday night at Mary and Mike's River Dance Ranch, Sister Joyce mentioned that she had never been horseback riding. So, on Sunday afternoon the entire Zambian team got the opportunity to horseback ride. This is a photo of Sister Joyce on her horse. Everyone had a good time and enjoyed their new experience.

After horseback riding it was time to get some sleep and prepare for their two week intensive leadership training program on disability policy and practice. On Monday everyone would meet their host families and begin their training.
