The Tidlund Foundation ran its second "Wildlife Education Camp," in the summer of 2008. Partnered with the Pece Community Nursery School, a team of seven Foundation staff and volunteers took 84 children on three-day educational trips to Murchison Falls National Park. The children come from Gulu, in Northern Uganda and most of them had never before left the district. It was great to share a part of their own country with them – they loved seeing giraffes and elephants for the first time, and even more exciting was seeing hippos right in our camp! Thanks to volunteers Rishma Mawani, Carly Heffner, Erin Ekman Krause, and Heather, Gail and Ted Lefebvre for their hard work in making this trip a success.
