Soar-Kenya had a beautiful day to host a picnic. First of all a huge thankyou to Lois Schuren who welcomed us to her beautiful home and yard to host the event. We had a good turn out of interested people. Mason Disrude , a young man that has just returned this past June from spending over 5 months working on projects at Hopewell Highschool brought along his photos. He has over 5000 so we didn’t get to enjoy them all, but his stories of his trip and wonderful photos of scuba diving and safari were great to see. Mason did so much to implement the many projects being worked on at Hopewell.  His hard work helped get many projects completed. We look forward to more stories of his travels in the future.   Phil Klamm of WTW also came and updated everyone on the International Village his group is building in Kenya, near the Hopewell School.  He is  working on geting his next group of volunteer tourists booking their trips for 2010. It would be an excellent and affordable way to go with a group, for a huge variety of experiences. Please look up Wrestling the World’s website for more information concerning that. This was not a fund raiser, rather an informal lunch shared to talk about the projects being worked on in Kenya. We hope to have a successful fundraiser in Nov. with the annual banquet and buffet and be ready to implement some of the great ideas shared on Sat.
