Camp 1 review will follow :-) But we had a great kick-off!
In the meetings we had held before we were afraid, that due to the small group of volunteers motivation and volume would become an issue. But Dubai and Caravan proofed us wrong! We had blasts during all the day, shouted „Trullalas“ in the morning, during the day until the very end just before night prayer. Our strict rule, that whoever does not participate in the cheers has to do his own, brought us some nice solo‘s from our Lebanese friends... BTW: thank you so much Rani, Dani, Hady, Jimmy, Ray and Joy, for spontaneously coming up to ChabrouH and staying longer than planned! You helped us out in the kitchen, in the shower, feeding, singing, dancing and especially translating. Also thank you for the fabulous concert you gave the boys, they were extremely happy (as everybody could tell!)!!
Also many thanks to our Dubai Friends, who did an AMAZING job in the Camp! When I look back at me at the age of 15-17, I did not have that strength and perseverance to stick to one boy 13 hours a day. Caravan is extremely impressed by the work that you did, and we hope to see you in our apartment when we come back to visit within the next few years! :)
A big „thank you“ to Patrick Jabre as well, who was in ChabrouH during the entire camp, took care of Elias and did all our shopping. I think we never had such a vast variety of treats during a Camp, and we really appreciated all the sweets we and the boys were given.
