Day 1:  Sunday, June 24th
The group will meet on Sunday, June 24th at 11am in the 
Miami International Airport. Once gathered at the appropriate 
gate, the Delegation will get acquainted before boarding 
American Airlines flight #1429 to Managua. 

Once in Nicaragua, we will gather our luggage and meet our 
bus driver(s) so that we can venture to León, a colonial city in 
the northwest - only 20-minutes from the Pacific coast. 

By 3pm, we will be settled in town. After dropping off our 
luggage, we will stroll into the heart of León and the 
Parque Central in front of the famous Cathedral. We'll dine 
in the center of the city before venturing back to our hotel 
​
for the night.

Days #2 - #4

Leadership Cultural Exchange in León 

While in León, we will engage in a cross-cultural leadership exchange with local community leaders. This day-long relational learning experience will invite our Delegates and local Nicaraguan leaders to share leadership stories and practices. LiDER is excited to create anopportunity for everyone involved to develop new leadership skills!

Our time in León will also include a visit to LiDER's Leadership Trainer Certification Program - to meet and engage with participants 
who are learning how to facilitate impactful leadership training programs. In addition to the formal leadership exchanges, the 
Delegation will include visits to local museums (e.g., Nicaragua's Revolution Museum, The Legends & Traditions Museum and the
Art Museum
) and a tour of the Cathedral - which includes a stroll on the roof!

On our last day in León, we will hike an active volcano (Cerro Negro) and visit the lovely Las Penitas beach on the Pacific Coast.

Days #5 - #7

​Community Service on a Coffee Plantation

 

The second part of the Delegation is a opportunity to be of a service to a 
poor community in Nicaragua's Rainforest. We will be assisting with the 
construction of a recreation space for the plantation workers and their 
families during the 2nd part of our stay. By law, Nicaraguan plantation 
workers are only allowed to work 8-hours per day. Due to the afternoon heat, they opt to work up and down the mountain slopes picking coffee 
cherries from 6am - 2pm. Likewise, their children attend school from
early 
in the morning until the afternoon. We will participate in constructing a recreation and community space at the Recreo Plantation
so that the workers and children have an intentional space for socializing and community-building.


While on the plantation, we will also spend time learning about coffee 
production on this fully-functional eco-friendly plantation. As a bonus, 
we will learn about cacao (chocolate!) production at a sister-plantation -
​all while cultivating relationships with the local community.

Day #8: Sunday, July 1st

On Sunday, July 1st, we'll enjoy a sunrise and our last breakfast in Jinotega, Nicaragua before venturing south to Managua. We'll Board American Airlines Flight #928 due to arrive in Miami at 6pm.

Lodging Notes

León​
While engaging in our León-based leadership cultural exchange, we will stay at Hotel Cacique Adiact - a premier hotel (with a pool) - just three blocks from the famous
Cathedral and Parque Central
Picture

Jinotega (Rainforest)
While in Nicaragua's northern rainforest, Delegation participants will have the option of lodging in a premier hotel - in the heart 
of Jinotega (30 minutes from the plantation) - or on the 
Recreo Coffee Plantation itself. 

Lodging at the Recreo Coffee Plantation is comfortable, yet rustic. Participants will sleep on dormitory-style twin beds in rooms for 2, 3, or 4. Each room has a private bathroom -
​but internet is not guaranteed.

For Delegates seeking cultural immersion and an incredibly unique opportunity to stay on a fully-operational eco-friendly coffee plantation, Recreo is the option for you! For participants seeks a more plushy experience, choose the Jinotega hotel option.
