Rosso Introduction to Gardening & Life Skills

The rosso Girls' Mentoring Center (GMC) recently undertook a project planning and design project. The goal of the project was to instruct the participating girls on proper planning and implementation of a budgeted project. This included getting estimates on work and material, making decisions on the labor, a final budget and even some work themselves. In support of the GMC's goal of non-traditional skill instuction, the girls were taught basic construction skills, built the picnic tables and painted the ceiling and tables. The project constructed a covered porch with picnic tables and planter boxes. These will used in the future as a second classroom for instruction and for gardening projects.
