This is the Pearlington Recovery Center where volunteers come and live for a period of time. We have indoor plumbing but also use the port-a-potties because of the convenience. The showers are not the best...but they do have hot water. Our meals are provided by the community and the center. We can drive to Bay St. Louis if we want to go out and eat dinner.
This tent is the "dining hall" where we eat every day.
If we need supplies, this is where we go - like toilet paper for one!
The Recovery Center is at the old elementary school, which was closed after Katrina and has never been reopened. We actually sleep in the school in bunkbeds in one room - co-ed.
The first night we were here, we went to Turtle Landing where we had fun doing Karoyke with our friends from engineering and social policy and practice. Here is Phoebe, Stephanie, and Alexis. 
Our leaders: Connie, Julie and Norma - singing karoyke.
