Experience of Volunteers from Napa Valley, California

Joe Dacanay and Caroline Upton from Napa Valley contacted Regency after reading this weblog. They showed up in Colombo with printouts from the web site, medicines for the tsunami victims, cash from three Napa Rotary clubs, the Calistoga Rotary Club, Queen of the Valley Hospital, the Napa Valley Register, the Napa County Sheriff's Search and Rescue and many private donors to buy more items required. They were fully prepared to camp out in the affected areas, and brought along their camping gear completed with canned food, water purifiers etc., to face any difficult situation. Please read their story on napanews.com and St Helena Star.

Regency thanks Joe and Caroline again for their true Rotary spirit of "Service above Self", and awaits their return.
