I would like to say something about these so-called service trips for which thousands of dollars have to be raised. They make me throw up. I can't tell you how many times my children and those close to me have been solicited to go on these trips and then we're told that our kids have to raise thousands in support! Why on earth should it cost one person $3-5,000 to go to Mexico for a couple of months (or Nicaragua for a week), especially if they're living in tents and eating locally? It seems like someone is always trying to raise money for these trips and no one around here is falling for those rip-offs anymore.
