serving

A stay at Our Cabana is more than sightseeing. Each troop who visits prepares for a service project to carry out while there. We helped with a one-day event with about 75 children in a program called Vamos. The children come by bus to the Cabana for the day and enjoy games, crafts, lunch and playtime with the Girl Scouts and Guides.


the children arrive!

I don't think my words can describe the experience better than my photos, so I'll let them speak. Even with a language barrier, our girls spent an amazing day serving these disadvantaged children.

Game time

The swings were popular: many children had never been on one.
