Mero Village, Dominica

Dr. Les Behrends, our technical director, and I got back from Dominica two weeks ago.....the wastewater garden was nearly complete by the time we left. We are honorary citizens of the village of Mero now..everyone was so wonderful and most have so little to live on. One guy told Les that "He believed in hard work, he didn't believe in tired, he believed in hungry." That says it all. We will be back in Mero this summer for the grand opening of the public toilet and the clean water camp for the youngsters of the village!
