Today team members were at my home and we packed our 18 bags. It was quite exciting to fit everything we want to take with us to Kenya into our large black hockey type bags. Our team is great and the youth going on this trip are incredible. Steven Hepburn just got back from being one of a few students selected from across Canada to be at the G8 and G20 summits. He had a great experience and I know that he added something by being there. He is an amazing young man and will be a great asset to our team. Sarah Schroeder, Sandra Brownlee and Laura Chute are quite remarkable young women who have contributed something to their community and school. Emily Duggan, in her Masters program at Emmanuelle College in Toronto, is our youth leader and is a young woman who has a level head on her shoulders and is a great role model for the youth that are on the trip.
I think they are excited about the trip and maybe a bit aprehensive since everything is unknown to them. I am sure they will all be great ambassadors for the Hope2Kenya team and for our town of North Bay.
