The Plan

We're finally getting the August camp organized. We've been talking with Tom through Skype and we have a lot more logistics to go over but it's going to work out. Tomorrow, Peter, Paul and I are going to visit the camp again to check out the field, camp ground, pool, etc. and we'll email Tom with some stats afterwards. Also, tomorrow, Paul and I are going to help the case workers and volunteer case workers use their computers and the database more efficiently and give them some sites to look at to help them with their typing. Students here aren't taught how to type like they are in America, so I see the case workers typing very slowly into their computer.

Peter, Paul and I have also made some schedules up so that we can get most of the jobs we're here to do done before the August camp. Next week, Paul and I will spend two days getting the library together which will really help the kids check out books more fluidly on saturdays. Keith and I have also been emailing back and forth to figure out which pictures he wants, and what exactly he wants for videos. The plan is that I am going to be making 4-6 "Day in the Life" videos of outgoing children in the program. Right now, some ideas for kids are Gervas Ouma, Alice Lavender, Noah Ngugi, Marleen Makuri, and Michelle Akuni.

Also, Jackson's band and I are planning to write and record a song about the children and HIV/AIDS. I will be meeting with them next Wednesday before work to start spinning some ideas, hopefully this song will be a good one.
