Here’s an EWB-centric KBCO Select-A-Set, created and submitted by our very own Zeke Houk, and played this past weekend. Nice work, Zeke! The Denver Chapter of ‘Engineers Without Borders’ has projects in Africa and South America. In these developing places our new-found friends need clean water most of all. Fortunately our organization has men and women who do that kind of work every day. The Engineers would like to hear: We have people working in Togo now, and another team on its way to Ecuador in April. After all, friends don’t let friends drink dirty water. Email This Post
