October 2010 budget update

October was a busy month at Robertsport Community Works. Dry season is upon us, which means the campsite is seeing a return of visitors eager to spend the weekend in Robertsport. We also held our 2nd Annual Surf Liberia Contest on October 24. Surf Liberia raises money for the Surf Liberia Mentoring Program--more specifically, for the university and technical school scholarships we provide for surfers who graduate from high school.

Here's the update!
