Cold weather, ‘orphans’ that still had parents and no running water for a few days … just a few of the unexpected turns for a group of Escalon residents during a summer mission trip to South Africa. Among those attending were Escalon High School students Gabby Rigg, Allison Rigg, Taylor Laugero, Trenton Busch and Josie Redberg, 2014 EHS graduates Taylor Busch and Logan LaRossa and adult volunteers Kim Rigg, Kaj Busch and Dan and Terri Franklin. “This was my first mission, I was kind of nervous but then again I wasn’t, because my mom had gone before,” freshman Gabby Rigg said of the experience.
