January 20th - 22nd
The camp went on as planned we played ultimate frisbee, basketball and volleyball to end the sports camp. The youth had the opportunity to draw and paint portraits of each other as well as sculpt objects and paint them.
The youth responded really well to the camp, we had about 40 total youth show up and many different leaders participate. On the last day we awarded the campers of the day, with a gift. They were given the opportunity to choose one of the sports balls that we played with this past week, they could choose an American football, futbol/soccer ball, basketball, volleyball or a frisbee. Five boys and five girls were chosen and four of the girls selected volleyballs (its very popular among the girls here) and one chose a frisbee and four boys selected American footballs and one chose a futbol. I really like the fact that the boys took so well to American football, they really enjoyed it and actually a few them made art pieces that contained American football in them.
Last night we went to Lima’s fountain park which has something like 13 water fountains and a fountain show at the largest (its similar to the fountain show at the Baligo in Las Vegas if you ever have seen that on TV or in person). The whole park was very beautiful, the event was the first touristy thing we have done since we’ve gotten to Lima.
