FFC goes to Black Thunder!

Last week a group of volunteers from Canada and the United States took 64 children from FFC to the water park Black Thunder in Coimbatore.
The day was eagerly anticipated by all who were going. Each morning the week before the trip you could hear children excitedly talking about Black Thunder. A bus was rented to transport the group of 8 volunteers, 2 staff and 64 children to enjoy a fun filled day that all will remember for years to come!
Thank you to Jennifer Brown, Peggy Hill, Jane Manchee, Barb Powers, Gayle McDonald and Shannon Kennedy for making this day possible.
