Dear Friends,
Tropic Ventures Education & Research Foundation needs your talents for 7 weeks in the rainforest.
All accommodation and food expenses covered by us. You just have to get here!
The challenge is to design/build a strong bunkhouse, that will sleep 10-12 people (let me know if you have an experimental design idea to try and/or new materials).
We need a crew leader for several youth groups that will be at the project 30th June to Aug 16th 2007
The task will be to start on the creation of a new bunk house that is hurricane secure:
1) To add several feet of floor to an already existing concrete floor that is now 16’x10’
2) To create a foundation around the whole floor for the columns that will hold the roof.
3) To build walls, window and door openings.
4) To finish the roof and floor. Build bunk beds?
We are very open to green/alternative designs, but we need the talent.
We have people power and a small budget.
This offer is open to 2 to 3 people with strong get up and go, and ability to work with youth ages ranging from 16-19 years. There are three staff with every group. In between the groups, work will be on--going and, of course, time off to explore. We would like to have the basic structure completed by mid-August. Anyone with construction skills and a desire to put their creative building visions into practice please, please be in touch.
Ideal length of stay: 7 weeks - 30th June to Aug 16th 2007
Specific Dates of youth groups:
June 30-July 4 Globalworks
July 14-18 Windsor Mountain
July 19-23 Globalworks
Aug 12-16 Globalworks
I'm counting on the human desire to make beautiful, and do well, things that fit in with the ideals of the lifestyles that all of us talk about.
We have a blank canvas and you are invited to come paint on it.
Thanks for responding to this, all ideas welcome.
Big tree hug, 3t
