First Contributors for MICS 4x4 Car Fund!!!

The blessings for MICS just keep flowing in. About two weeks ago we began to think about starting a fund for a dependable school vehicle that could provide transportation and carry supplies for the boarding school when it opens in a few months. The roads around here have proven to be really hard on any and all vehicles soooooo ....... we decided it will have to be one that will hold together and not get stuck on the muddy roads of Zambia....definitely a 4 x 4.
Then........one week later we got our first contribution to the "MICS Mobile"!!!!!!!
A wonderful group of people in St. Rose Illinois participated in a "School Scavenger Hunt" organized by Cheryl Timmermann with her help of her wonderful Jansen Family!!! From all reports fun was had by all!! This by the way is the second annual scavenger hunt Cheryl organized for the people of St Rose. The first year I believe about 30 people participated but this year the total was around 60!!
Can you imagine teams had to find a teacher that taught them during their school days and then bring the teacher to cross the finish line with their team.....Most teams by the way crossed the finish line around midnight!!! This would not be an easy feat for any of us. What a challenge!!
This fabulous St. Rose group is the very first to contribute to the new school vehicle fund for MICS. They contributed $735.00. This even included the prize money from the winning team. After they won the scavenger hunt..... they gave their winnings to the school vehicle fund.
The boys and girls of MICS are saying a BIG THANK YOU to St. Rose and the Jansen Family in the attached picture!!!
Cheryl THANKS to you too!!! What a great idea. Thanks for all your hard work!!
We will keep all of you posted on the progress of the vehicle fund and its growth.
