In the February 16 episode, VOA goes to a Syrian refugee camp in Lebanon on the difficult conditions families face on a daily basis. In Ellicott City, Maryland, Syrian nationals have opened a local café and gallery that features their homeland’s art and cuisine. In time of need: Dash Systems has developed a disposable drone delivery system to get supplies to remote regions. Robot room service: in Las Vegas, Nevada, robots navigate through a hotel to bring supplies to guests and workers at any time. In Minneapolis, the Skywalk allows city dwellers to go to many places downtown without exposure tothe bitter cold. But those conditions are ideal for ice sculpture, as created by Deneena Hughes. In Utah, the Olympic Legacy Foundation provides winter sports training and coaching for kids, as the city makes regular use of its Olympics facilities.
