BRIDGING AGES SOUTH AFRICA 1st CONFERENCE ON 20, 21 OCT 2010

 The planning is gaining momentum.  The programme, accomodation , transport, content, speakers, budgets etc had to be all sorted out before the final programme is sent out.

Detailed planning of every moment from the 19th  October until it is over is being discussed , debated and agreed upon. The Port Shepstone community is really great with so many wanting to volunteer- even if it is one contribution, it  adds to the whole.

Fundraising and keeping everyone motivated is  a challenge. But it is getting done with the support of Tizzie, our BASA chairperson, Ebbe, BA International chairperson, Louis, from Western Cape, for his support and guidance every step of the way and to our Twinning Board and  Time Travel Sub committee.

Locally,Rueben's support is motivating. Silvy, Judy and  Gary, the 3 pilot schools, the recent past delegates to Kalmar- Howard, Thulas, Rosey, our experienced twinners, Pauline, Dell and Christa and Tilana of eSayidi FET, and Leslie of Ziphakamise, are all on board, helping ,wherever they can.
