Do you want to go on a Spring break trip? IC Habitat is getting ready to embark on two wonderful trips to two wonderful locations during this SPRING BREAK, March 12-19. Break trip sign-ups will take place on SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 20TH!
The first trip is a traditional Spring Break weeklong build, in Columbus, Georgia. We've had a lot of success building there in the past and we know that this year will be no difference. It's an 18-hour drive, costs $175, and will be awesome. If you're 21 and want to go on the trip, consider driving! Contact Emily Holland, break trip coordinator, at ehollan1[at]ithaca.edu for more information!
The second trip is called Advocacy in Albany, and this will be our second year attending. The structure of the trip is more closely connected to educational, advocacy-related tools and knowledge. The first few days involve learning about the legislative and lobbying process, the next involve actual lobbying for affordable housing with state senators and representatives, and the last two days include a build in Albany! It costs around $120 (final number TBA). For more information, contact Kaylee Underkolfer, who led last year's trip and fell in love with the program, at kunderk1[at]ithaca.edu.
If you're signing up for a break trip, come to THIS WEEK'S MEETING on Sunday, Feb. 20 at 4pm in the Taughannock Falls Room with cash or check for the cost of the trip, emergency contact information, your doctor's office address and the date of your last tetanus shot. Drivers will take priority for sign-ups. Get excited!
