Community Day Of Service

This past Saturday we helped out in a service project with our church. The service project was helping clean up the Zoo. The Zoo was hit very hard during the Hurricane Gonzalo. A lot of things on St Maarten aren't always built the best so when a storm like a Gonzalo comes along building and structures get destroyed. The zoos fences, animals structures and a lot of trees were uprooted so a lot was destroyed. Luckily all the animals were moved inside before Gonzalo hit so no animals were hurt.  The zoo has received a lot of help from other organizations in the pervious weeks, like removal of the trees that were broken. We were assigned to help clean the park  and pathways up with raking leaves and such. Lincoln and Lacey loved helping clean up the zoo. I'm glad they had the opportunity to help in the community, especially somewhere we like to visit often. Lincoln also had fun showing the missionaries how he can check lizards with his hands.
