1965: Paige A. Stasney served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Peru in Vicco beginning in 1965
Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Paige A. Stasney can be contacted at pgstasneyagmaildcom
Country of Service: Peru
Training Group: Albuquerqi
Cities you served in: Vicco
Arrival Year: 1965
Departure Year: 1967
Work Description:
Agrarian Reform Program on Hacienda Algolan. Property expropriated from Enriqui Fernandini, and sold to 26 surrounding Indian Communities.
Bring us up to date on your life after the peace corps:
Retired, living in Rockport, Texas.
Any thoughts you have now looking back on peace corps days?:
Would not take anything for the memories, but now think that the Peace Corps should be disbanded. It is a colossal failure. We have current volunteers rebuilding latrines that prior volunteers built 25 years ago. That is not economic development.
Anyone you are looking for or would like to hear from?:
Wally Chastain.
