Word of life camp! Day 1

This week the team (Philip, Nzioka Anthony, Kennedy and I) will spend sometime with 15 boys from the streets. The Conways have organised this event and have put up a team of four to help with this weeks' event. We plan to get five boys who will join us in the boarding program in kamulu farm. We arrived, at Eastleigh, picked up all the 15 boys at two team members, Anthony and Kennedy. Then Jackton drove us all to the camp site. A long drive, or maybe because we have never been there. Reaching the camp we met a four man team. Ed, Justin and their wives. There was lunch, then we had a chat about the camp theme, (badilika) which means change. We also talked about plans for the week, rules etc. Then we did some crafts, making buttons name tags and folders.
Games then followed, magazines scavengers, hunt, bandanna necklaces, sports, soccer, which the Kenyan team and the American team both supervised. The boys took a hot shower, we had dinner. Since we were so tired we decided to call it a day.
We await Day 2, and all its fun activities.
