Escapees BOF (Birds of a Feather) groups are comprised of people who share a common interest. In order to belong to a BOF, one must be a member in good standing of the Escapees RV Club. NOMADS are nation wide. Although, we are sponsored by the United Methodist Church, United Methodist church affiliation is not required to join. Our Projects last three weeks, and the work includes building old and new construction, office work, painting, sewing, childcare or gardening. There is always work for every skill. The benefits are great. These include fellowship and lasting friendships, the joys of using one's hands for Christ's mission, travel experiences of different cultures, lifestyles, and geographic areas, We are furnished a place to park our RV's with electicity and water and a place to dump sewage.
The highlight of our year is our Reunion. The reunion for 2008 will be held in Shawnee,OK in September. Pictures of this years reunion are on the NOMADS web site. For more information about NOMADS go to www.nomadsumc.org Also at this site you can download applications to join NOMADS and registration for reunion can be found there the summer of 2008.
This past year NOMADS completed 140 projects with 1120 NOMADS working 80,604 hours. We also had 4 revolving teams on the gulf coast, whose hours were not counted in this.
