Uruguay Open Team

The group will stay at the Betania Retreat Center. The center is located about 35 minutes from the airport and about 35 minutes from the school job site. The campus is located in the country, outside the city, with plenty of open areas on the grounds. The group will travel each day, to and from the work site, in a private bus.

Volunteers will stay in a mixture of rooms with bunk beds and rooms with double beds. Each room is double or triple occupancy, but each room has a private bathroom.

There is hot water on campus and bedding is provided, but please plan to bring a towel, washcloth, and pillow. The rooms do not have screens on the windows, so we recommend that volunteers bring a mosquito net to either place over the window or to cover the bed. A full packing list will be available in the final information packet.

Meals will take place in a common dining room at the center and worships will be held in another meeting room. WiFi is available in some spots on campus, but do not expect a very fast connection.
