The Fall 2000 SST unit in Costa Rica is over, but this website will remain available.

Jeff Rempel gets a big hug from his host mamaThe SST students arrived on schedule on Wednesday, August 30 in San José. They spent a night in a hostel in and then joined their host families.

  • Happy to be in Costa Rica, but a bit anxious moments before meeting their host families for the first time: Cara and Megan.
  • Patty Frey and her host papá in front of the main post office--families are getting students oriented to San José.

Dona Felicia and Gerhard ReimerDirectors of the Fall 2000 SST unit in Costa Rica are Gerhard Reimer and Rosemary Wyse Reimer. Gerhard is pictured here eating a typical Costa Rican meal of rice, beans, and plantains, with household helper Doña Felicia. He also led SST groups in Costa Rica in 1974, and is intrigued to see the changes that have taken place in the last quarter century.
