Mambo Press: In the National Capital on Remembrance Day
http://mambopress.blogspot.com/2009/11/in-national-capital-on-remembrance-day.html
Tuesday, November 17, 2009. In the National Capital on Remembrance Day. Thanks to Sally's initiatives and hard work, the help of a couple host parents and organizations, and the understanding of all our work placements, we were able to enjoy a day trip to Ottawa for free on Remembrance Day. Meeting at 6am and spending four hours in the very small bus may not have been so enjoyable, but I think everybody agrees it was well worth it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Mambo Press: EAD: Social Services
http://mambopress.blogspot.com/2009/11/ead-social-services.html
Thursday, November 12, 2009. We then headed towards the New Canadians Centre, where a man came to talk to us about the Youth Emergency Shelter, another place in Peterborough that provides help to those in need. In the afternoon, Rachel and Andrea introduced us to different green initiatives pursued by social services organizations in Peterborough, and wrapped up their presentation with a fun quiz. That marked the end of a very informative day! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome to Mambo Press!

Mambo Press: October 2009
http://mambopress.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 25, 2009. On September 29th our team member Frank, from Arusha, Tanzania, turned 21! We celebrated by bringing our team together for a Chinese feast at the Hendry’s place (Sean and Suzan’s host home) prepared by Sally, our Oriental chef. Monday, October 19, 2009. For the very first Educational Activity Day of the Canadian phase, our group (Saumu, Edith, Frank, Scott, Rachel and myself) took on the topic of Arts in Peterborough. Having taken note of the city's variety of beautiful home...

Mambo Press: Ship Shape: A Day at the Canadian Canoe Museum
http://mambopress.blogspot.com/2009/11/ship-shape-day-at-canadian-canoe-museum.html
Sunday, November 1, 2009. Ship Shape: A Day at the Canadian Canoe Museum. The year is 1694, and 20 young Frenchmen battle the currents of the treacherous rivers of New France. Paddling from dawn until dusk, portaging with 180 pounds of supplies and furs on their weary backs. Why put oneself through this torture? Adventure, my friends, adventure…. That was my experience at least. Every one else seemed much more laid back about it. And, amazingly, all three teams managed to finish our respective ka...Final...

Mambo Press: FREE MARKET!
http://mambopress.blogspot.com/2009/11/by-bradley-clements-free-costing.html
Monday, November 9, 2009. A place or gathering for the sale of products. These two words hardly seem to go together. When we do put them together, the dictionary tells us that they mean “a system in which prices are determined by unrestricted competition between private companies.” In OPRIG’s Free Market, located in Sadler House, there are no companies, no competition, and no prices. Everything is free. If you are interested in donating to or “shopping” at the Free Market, check it out on wee...Our inten...

Mambo Press: September 2009
http://mambopress.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 19, 2009. A Gathering of the Nations:The Canada-Tanzania Team at the Curve Lake Pow-wow. The pow-wow was a cultural experience for all, including our native hosts: at one point the MC acknowledged the Tanzanian members of our team as those who had come the furthest to attend the event! I felt that we all left the reserve with a deeper understanding and respect for North America and her first people. Thank you to Wendy McConkey for making the outing possible for us! But despite getting...

Wednesday, November 4, 2009. EAD #3: Furry little things. The EADs have very broad topics, a couple weeks ago, the topic was "Community". The aspect of community which we chose to look at was the wild life. Every community has a role to play in terms of how they impact the environment. Depending on where you are, it may play a larger part or smaller within the community. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome to Mambo Press! Swahili Word/ Tanzanian Fact.
