The following Peace Corps Volunteers trained in the summer of 1969 for Ethiopia XI in Awasa, Sidamo Province. The group was made up of Skins & Hides, medical, ag and community development Volunteers. Five Volunteers worked in Animal Health.

Bob Mullane wrote this about the training:

We spent a couple of months doing language study in Awasa. We were housed in a lakeside 'resort' which consisted of individual 'cabins'. I think three (or possibly four) Volunteers were assigned to each cabin. Upon completion, we broke up into individual groups for further field training. I was a community development worker, and we trained with Bernard Flock (Ethiopia VI U of Utah) in irrigation skills. That training took place in the field. I'm not sure of the location, but the nearest town with a paved 'highway' also had a large pool fed from hot springs. I think the town was Ambo, but I'm not sure. I don't remember where the other teams did their follow-on training.

And Thanks too to Bob for sending a copy of his mug book from this training group.
