Last night I got my team assignment: I'm officially part of Blue Unit Team 3. My team leader, Melissa, hails from New Jersey and has her master's degree in social work. She's quiet, laid back, and very friendly; I'm very excited she's my team leader. The rest of the team seems pretty cool too, although I'm still learning what everyone is like. Today's training helped me get to know my team, it was called something like "hands of peace", although I kept referring to it as friendship training because I could never seem to remember the name. For the most part it was pretty basic communication skills training, total rehash for me, but the community building activities and the development of a set of team guidelines and mission statement helped me get a good sense of the people I'm going to be working with. Tomorrow we'll be shipping out to Mendocino together and won't be back until Saturday, so I'll be completely out of touch from now until then. Unfortunately, I'm not permitted to drive the van due to my driving record, but once I get an updated record with my defensive driving credit on it I should be okay. I'm a little disappointed I can't help, we currently only have three drivers. Oh well.
Oh, and just for reference, my assignment to my team makes my new address here:
Adam Bosen, Class 16, Blue Unit, Team 3
Americorps NCCC
3427 Laurel Street
McClellan, CA
