A lot of friends and family back home have been asking "what is this limes you are talking about". Over the last few weeks of being in Grenada, I have shared some photos and posts about the fun days we have at limes, or with the limes babies.
After doing some asking around (Thank you Miss Julie) I learned that the 'Limes Program' was an afterschool program that was orginally started by the Peace Corp. From there, entirely unsure how or why, a few individuals from the Significant Others group from SGU took it over and it has become a big part of SGU life.
Currently, the 'Limes Program' is run by two loving and caring SO Board Members (Miss Julie and Miss Laura) that each week organize games, snack, activites, events, fundraising and volunteers to love on the kids of Grenada.
Every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at promptly 3:00pm the SO volunteers trek to the limes field and wait for our limes babies to meet us at the pre-school. With recent volunteer support and lots of love from families across the globe, a new awning/over-hang and fence were able to be purchased to help keep the kids stay safe each week. It is incredible to see the love that has gone into making this program such a success.
