Sponsor a Step!
The weekends on base see the EMs with a little bit more free time and some of them use it to disappear off down to the swimming hole, or spend a bit more time on their BTECs, or practising their Spanish with the local students from the Yachana College. Often everyone mucks in with camp improvements, which are an on-going activity. The last weekend saw a fantastic team effort with putting in a new bit of walkway on arrival at the base. It involved a lot of sawing of very hard wood in hot and humid conditions. Everyone got involved and chopped their own section of the wood (laid out like railway tracks), once chopped, their names were engraved on it, by way of sponsoring their very own section of the walkway - very similar to the stars footprints in L.A! It was a successful day of camp improvements and a great sense of team achievement felt by all. Everyone can now reflect on their achievements on a daily basis, every time they walk on it!
