#76: Ghana update - new spot for water well

Hello friends & family

We wanted to give you an update on another project concerning water. The Pra River basin in the Google Earth image below is in our immediate area where Joey Romero is currently working from (Project Manager for #MoreWaterProject Ghana). The little yellow dot center top is Joeys' village.  We are currently conducting a survey of the entire area (~115 square km) with a focus on the river basin farms (~41km of river) to see how many wells it would take to ensure every villager had access to clean water 24/7 365 days of every year.  Joey will survey logging road access for bore hole drilling and then survey areas where hand dug wells could be a solution.  It would be an aggressive but doable project. We like to THINK BIG! We are hoping to have the first stage of the survey completed within two-three weeks pending agreeable weather.  

The Suminam project was attempted last week but delayed because of rain.  The villagers are trying their best to fill wet places with stones.  We will try again this next week.  Once successful, we will send pictures of the drilling and well development. 

Thanks for all the donations and support, lets help Africa as much as we can.

Have a blessed day
