The Apology:
Dear Friends and colleagues,
My deepest and sincerest apologies on my inactivities and absence since the beginning of the year. Family matters have become uncontrollable on this end, starting off with a family fight at an uncle's funeral in February, and compounded by my mother having a major and devastating stroke on 4/15. I'm currently at my wits end trying to put together what is left of this family and end the infighting among us. Sadly, this has taken time from my friends and colleagues, as well from my studies and work.
Hopefully soon, as they current seem to be, things will improve. The situation on my mother's health is not good but its doable. Currently she is in a rehab center, where they are trying to get her into some form of viable strength to go home on with a home attendant. But I am doing everything by myself for her and in her name. This is the difficult challenge I have to deal with.
-Fernando.
Ruben, the idea of the summer camp is great. I have done so many of them over the years I can basically tell you how to do it depending on the program structure you want. Email the basics of the program's wants and needs and I'll put something on paper for you on how to do it. Basic required info needed: How many to service? What age group is being served? What lessons are to be taught? Where will be held? etc... In the least, such a program will require 3 weeks of preparation, mainly because as I see it we are starting from nothing.
Take care everybody.
-Fernando
