Community Presentation

This last Sunday was the first official presentation of the the intended design scheme. We met the community early on a windy morning.




 This proved to be quite difficult to set up our presentation, but we managed to arrange a sheet to protect the presentation area. This actually helped concrete our ideas for the need of a weather barrier to the North edge.


 At the first the presentation wasn't received as well as we expected, but then the community leader stepped in, translated and we started to see the reaction we were hoping for. 



In all the community gathered there were very enthusiastic, with several loud voices that offered services from carpentry to cooking meals for volunteers. In summary a very successful day, that brought much hope for the success of the project.
