If you read our E-letter, you know that CCF Namibia’s Senior Research Assistant, Matti Nghikembua, is visiting the U.S. for the second year. Here is a recent note we received from him: Hi I arrived safely here in California - San Jose. I met Vicki and Sharon, past Earthwarch volunteers with CCF in 2007. Yesterday I went to an early Earth Day event at the Westwind Barn with Barbara and Rob Dicely and had dinner afterwards. At the Cincinnati Zoo, I gave a presentation to the 50 zoo staff, volunteers and a school group that showed up. I also went to visit a school in Bethel where I gave a presentation to 450 kids (ages 5 - 8). That was a lot of energy there given the short attention span, but i made it more interactive. Veronica, who is a teacher at the school, donated A LOT of art supplies which se will ship to CCF Namibia. My stay in Columbus was great and Patty Kuun was very useful. Regards, Matti

Hi Matti, you must come to Florida someday! Good to hear the kids were so excited to learn about our cheetahs. Keep up the great work! Post a comment
