International flavor noted in training menu
One lonely white domestic duck survived the Oberlin College Peace Corps trainees evening meal as six ducks and ten chickens were prepared. The camp menu featured Chicken Piquant African Jambalaya and a luau pig, with meals built around a rugged campsite at Vermilion River. The group of 48 trainees, led by Dr. Donald Reick, endured rain and cool temperatures as they dug pits, roasted meat, and cooked multiple dishes before breaking camp for a 1142 mile hike home to Oberlin tomorrow morning.
