Team meets at Sneaky Pete's to debrief March trip experience
and make recommendations for next trip in November.
 
Both the traveling and stateside members of the March 9th Costa Rica Dental Fair in Tirrases, Costa Rica team met at Sneaky Pete's restaurant in Lewisville, Texas yesterday. Beyond having fun and fellowship together, the purpose of our meeting was to have an honest critique of what went well and what needs improvement.
The trip was a complete success with the team providing free dental care for almost 80 patients. As with any endeavor, processes and services can always improve. As we work to raise the needed funds for the Global Grant (Global Grant 1571) to purchase dental equipment, we also want to incorporate planning for our next trip.

While November seems a long time away, the team has plenty to do. Including visiting other Rotary clubs to solicit financial support for our Global Grant project, work on the ideas and suggestions we developed during brainstorming and identifying ways of recruiting additional participants for the November trip.
 
Thanks to all that helped to make this trip a success. In particular, we want to recognize our primary host club partner the Rotary Club of San Padro-Curridabat and the leadership provided by Aisha Baltodano-Flores and her team. We are also extremely thankful that we had the opportunity to witness some of the wonderful work this club has been doing in this community making us proud to be part of Rotary. Mostly though, we are thankful for the wonderful tour and fellowship opportunity's we experienced with our fellow Rotary members in Costa Rica.
