| From Honduras 2008 Photo Album |
The base for our bedkit distributions today was CEB Las Americas, a private elementary school in a barrio of Tegucigalpa. This was the first non-public school that we have seen. It was in better condition than our other schools: with one older computer for the several hundred students. It was not the source of our bedkit children. They came in from surrounding areas.
Here is a special announcement for all SCAW overseas teams past and present. We delivered 470 bedkits (25x11, 4x10, 4x5, 7x4 plus 107 "singles") in just over three hours, to beat out a looming storm. We are submitting this to the Guiness Book of Records!
For those readers who have yet to join a team, this means that we took 25 photos in groups of 11, 4 photos in groups of 10 etc. The "singles" were groups of three except for the last two children. We really do get into this stuff don't we!
Last evening was the formal meeting with our Rotary partners. During it, after his speech, Leader Harry was presented with the official Partner's report.
The good news from the children today was that Honduras beat USA at soccer 2:0. This has taken some of the heat off us for Canada's 2:1 defeat.
