  3. September 2005 Camp Report The camp held in September was a memorable occasion for all who attended it. The three age groups and four cultural groups did not stop the kids to mix and build true friendships in the real Imbila spirit. The games played by Madeleen early on Saturday Morning 24 Sept, broke the ice, and all could take their places on the new Imbila bus for the long road to Natal. After a long day on the road, we thankfully arrived at Bush Baby Lodge in Hluhluwe for the next nine unforgettable, adventure-filled days. Crocs, snakes, game-drives, boat-trips, were only part of the exciting things ahead, and the kids could not wait to begin. Over the next four days at Bush Baby Lodge, visits to the snake and crocodile farm, a game drive, abseiling, paintball, archery, the Zulu Cultural Village for some Zulu dancing and the boat trip to St Lucia, the kids came back to camp exhausted, crawling into their beds, eagerly looking forward to what the next day would bring. At Sodwana Bay we spent four days in the sun, boogie boarding, snorkeling, chasing crabs and learning marine biology, like coral formation, anemones and other sea life. Then bringing the day to an end, we sat around the campfire each night, laughing and telling stories reliving the days events over again. But everything came to an end on Sunday 2 October, when we had to call Sodwana Bay farewell, and tackle the long road back to Gauteng, but this time with a new vision of what the best in ME is.  So long Sodwana, we'll be back again with Imbila in December for another exciting camp...

  11. TESTIMONIALS Hi Philip I just want to thank you and your team for a wonderful, adventurous and educational trip you offered to our children. xxx really enjoyed it.  She does not stop talking about it. May God bless you Good morning Philip Thank you so much for wonderful opportunity afforded xxx by being able to attend the summer camp.  You will never know what this has done for him as a person.  He is a lot more positive and once again sees chance to face life with a lot of vigour and enthusiasm.  For this we are thankful. xxx thoroughly enjoyed himself, he could not stop talking about the camp the first few days after his return.  It was strange for him to go away on his own with people whom he had never met but it worked out so well and he made good friends.  He enjoyed entertaining the people at the camp with his lively personality.  Of course, the chocolate cake was tops, he did not mind helping Linda just to get a nice slice of cake.  xxx also enjoyed keeping the little one's entertained. Please thank everyone involved for their love and care shown towards xxx. God bless
