There is no reason not to. The first time they came here was in 2007. The place was still a mess from Katrina. In the down time they even helped me clean up a bit more of my property. The kids impressed me Soooooo much I made up my mind they would always be welcome here and they have never given me any reason to change my mind.

When they come in after dark they set up camp and bunk down. Some of the dads sit on my screened in back porch and relax after camp is set up. They get up, have breakfast, and go fishing. In the evening they are all pitching in to set up supper. It is usually late when they all finish the big Saturday feast. The next day they get up, have a very big breakfast, break down camp, police the area, and leave with my place being cleaner than I had it when they arrived.

Could not ask for better. The parents of these children have to be proud of the way they are growing up. I know I am very impressed.
