Annie, Kevin Ma, Chirs, Tracy, Christine, Daniel, Coralie, Anna, Kevin Mauro, Maddy, Jim,
Diana, Dani, Nick, Victoria, Nicole…
It has been a pleasure to journey with each of you this summer.
With efficiency and production, we packed tons of Northwest Harvest rice.
Mike O’Brien, Lisa Fitzhugh, and Heidi Breeze-Harris gave us career and creativity advice.
Trail path cleared at Denny Creek.
Community partners, alumni, and mayoral candidates we greet.
Nailing, sawing, and precision went into the construction of a fence.
Cheering for the Sounders with suspense.
Hiking, poker, and Scotch Broom removal at Pack Forest.
You are group who gets little rest.
You now leave Seattle and the Northwest.
A place filled with the histories of the Japanese Americans, Suquamish, and many other groups who have been/are oppressed.
Immigrants, youth, low-income, young adults, children without families, people with varying abilities, the sick and unhealthy…these are the people you served alongside and with.
Let me end with one of the ten sentence stories you created during our visit to the International District,
“Life is one continuous meal with many long breaks.”
Let us enjoy our last meal together, and prepare for a short break before your next meal with your families and with each other back at Duke.
Here's to DukeEngage Seattle!
