From Atlanta to New York to Alaska, the Clinkscale Family has had a whirlwind of travel over the holiday season. In addition to celebrating Bradleigh’s birthday at American Girl in New York and Randy’s birthday on Broadway, the Clinkscales continued their annual family tradition of celebrating Christmas in Harlem. For the first time, the entire Clinkscale Clan—and Kesha’s mom—arrived in Alaska to experience some of the amazing wonders and places to explore in the Valley and beyond. Snowboarding at Skeetawk, skiing Artic Valley, sledding and hot chocolate at Hatcher Pass, and exploring the Anchorage Museum are just a few of the fun activities the family took part in and there’s so much more they will do!

This spring, Vandana's daughter, Ivana, has an opportunity to serve a community through a ministry trip to the Dominican Republic organized by the Shalom Project. During this trip, she will be traveling to Santiago, DR, where she will have the opportunity to work with local students and teachers in the school system and in a medical triage. This is a great international experience and an opportunity to work in a different culture.
