Day 2: Happy Juneteenth! Today we’re heading to Galveston Island, the birth place of Juneteenth to celebrate!
We’ll start the morning off learning about June 19, 1865 where the freedom of more than 250,000 enslaved Black people in the state of Texas was announced. Then we’ll get to enjoy the Juneteenth Celebration and Festival! With the parade, vendors and more, it will be a celebration to remember!
Day 3: We made it to the last day but the fun is not over yet! After breakfast, we’re headed to our service project! It’s an excellent opportunity for us to give our time in service to Black owned organizations! (Further details to come)
