On June 16th, I helped out during the KidsGames closing ceremony program that was held here in Thies. Children from five local schools were involved in the program, which included lots of games, dancing, and award presentations. The KidsGames sports outreach programs, that the local Baptist church, Sport Life & Blooming, & MIS (Mission Inter-Senegal) organize for the school children, began this past January. This day was the culmination of these programs. KidsGames is a sports & values based program for 6-14 year olds where companies, churches, schools, community groups, sports organizations and local governments can all work together to serve children in the years when the Summer Olympics and World Cup of Soccer occur (according to http://www.kidsgames.com/).

The staff did a great job organizing this program...there were balloons, soccer balls, music, dancing, singing, awards, & lots of games too! Take a look at the pictures & videos here to see what it was all about. Enjoy
