Dominican January 2023

Winters in Canada aren’t the warmest, which makes escaping to the DR a wonderful option! Thus, we have a contingent from Winnipeg that likes to come every January. This January was no different, but it was the first one back since before the pandemic. In fact, January 2020 was our last trip before taking 2 years off! So, many of our regular January participants returned to sling mezcla with the locals. This was one of our most seasoned teams with a dozen people participating in over 5 trips each. For two of our volunteers, Jill and Bill, this was their 17th trip each! And this was the trip that saw Jonah and Isaiah travel to Santo Domingo for an Ultimate Frisbee Clinic. Brent led a dental team that put on 3 clinics with 3 dentists from Winnipeg and Toronto! Many friendships were formed with the locals and the Canadians and we are already looking forward to next January’s trip.
