Again this year our club sponsored a young person to attend the Lord Somers Camp and Power House in late January ( it coincided with Melbourne's record 4 hot days). 

Maree Webb (Programs administrator ) wrote and thanked the club.   Our support was for student Ayel Akot from Fitzroy who as a Sudanese refugee, would not have been able to attend without this help.  Ayel wrote a letter to the organisers and Maree passed that on.  Ayel remarked   " I really wanted  to say thank you  so so so much for letting me come to Big Camp. I have made so much friends.  I never thought that I would be able to see myself as a beautiful unique and gifted woman.  Thank you for that........................."
