As stated before, all of the classes / meetings are occurring in non air conditioned rooms or in an open air tent outside.  Even with numerous ceiling fans (even in the tent) it has been very hot and leading these classes is very draining.  We have had a few instances of people feeling ill, but so far nothing some rest, some water and some air conditioning hasn’t cured.
