Final BAP meeting

Hey everyone!

Yesterday we had our final meeting of the school year. We have a total of 14 people going on the trip; eleven students and three faculty members. We are all extremely excited for the trip but we have a lot of preparation to do first.
We discussed the immunizations we all need before we head off to Uganda including yellow fever and polo. We also began to assign roles for the trip. Everyone has their own responsibilities ranging from taking photographs to organizing bicycle distribution. Several members of the group will be flying to Uganda several weeks early to volunteer and set up a partner for the GlobeMed group on campus.
We hope to establish Bicycles against Poverty as a sustainable bicycle loan program in Uganda. If all goes well there could be future Bucknell trips to Africa.

  1. Alyson, it seems my trick of posting the press release worked. At least we have gotten our first official write up from Kevin...thanks Kevin. I am waiting to see if the trick works on Alyson
