Part of the job is directing human traffic during a normal day. With Covid 19 we wanted to try and keep that as best possible. It worked well most of the time 😁

Deciding on a colour of the frames gives the person a great sense of ownership. It's amazing that most schools decide on the same colour frames.
They must be worn at least 2 hours a day so the eye gets used to them and the person knows it's good for them

Something to be said about being thorough.

We are dealing with sensitive souls and it's never a good idea to give just because it's there. That's why we are thorough - a screening process isn't just a quick way to get numbers. It takes effort, planning, time and a process in place to ensure it's done as accurate and best possible.

People get screened before and after they received eye glasses to make sure it's a pro and not a con. I am very lucky to have Karl on my side. We are there to do #eye glasses but he brings a skillset to these projects like no one I've met before.

After I double checked these little ones something wasn't right. Passing them onto good hands gives a relief and in some cases a different solution. He picked up something that was only in this area and he'd never seen before. I can't tell you what just yet - that is still under discussion but rest assured it's being researched.

Semolale school. Borbirwa region Eastern Bötswana. We had such a eventful #eyescreening screening process aaaaaaand what made it better was the chief and head of the PTA for the school joined in the process.

Bötswana is advanced and just FYI the village chief of the younger handsome lad of the left of the pic. #makingprogress for youth

Things where going well. Smooth, methodical screening lines and processes making sure it was done correctly so no one was left behind.

Then it slowly started happening and some of the little souls sitting in the chairs where brought to me for double checking. This is important as there eyes are still developing so we want to give them a better chance than what they ever would have received which is largely thanks to our sponsors to which you'll get to know.

Then a bomb dropped in our lap - something we have never seen before. (I have even seen thorns still lodged in kids eyes).

The next post tells the start to the story

Arriving at Lentswe Le Moriti the vibe was joyful.

Arriving at Lentswe Le Moriti the vibe was joyful. They where ready and waiting and we couldn't wait to get the ball rolling with Intro's and greetings.

The Eco Mentor team (more about them below) had temperature and sanitizer ready and waiting. I started the greeting and introductions while the team followed on waiting to set up.

It was a busy morning as always being day #1. a little jumbled getting in the thick of it.

About the Eco Mentors - Children in the Wilderness Bobirwa Eco-Mentors are chosen through their desire to educate children in conservation and their passion for protecting the natural environment. They live or work in the six villages alongside the Northern Tuli Game Reserve. Our training aims to develop these local community members, teachers and Game Reserve staff, by upgrading skills in their environmental understanding and enabling them to better implement school and village environmental projects and initiatives.

Eco-Mentor training sessions include providing information on Children in the Wilderness, how to run Eco-Clubs as well as focusing on the Children in the Wilderness Eco-Club resource book: how to use it; how to run the activities and other important information. All training sessions are interactive and fun.

Settled, chilled and packed, we where rearing and ready for Monday morning.
Karl arrived in his big 5 door #nissanpatrol and the team complete. Last few adjustments and changes in process as I found out the coming Thursday was a public holiday.

We learnt a lot about the 2013 flooding and the devastation it caused. The Limpopo border between Botswana and South Africa was heavily affected.

This was interesting to hear along with seeing Solomon's wall. A incredible stone wall with lots of myths, legends and folk stories. The Tuli region isn't very well known amongst Campers and Overlanders. Majority of the property is privately owned BUT I beg you to view @tuli.wilderness for camping sites. They're amazing and more on that to come.

Monday approached soon enough, we left in the morning on time - Africa time hahaha.

We got into camp late, I was so glad I got the Vision x ADV spot lights installed on time and thanks hugely to Diesel tech and 4x4 Megaworld Bryanston.

Karl hit a snag leaving Johannesberg and arrived the following night only which worried me but I knew he's the most reliable guy and would be there.

Very seldom do we get some downtime before a project but due to Covid we had to change plans and routes so we used the time wisely.

So much to follow I'm excited to share but not too soon. 😁

The time finally arrived. The project had officially started and the team left home on different days and times to meet up in one spot on the 26th June 2021.

I ask you to watch, follow, like and share as for over the next few weeks you'll see how we did and the process it takes to be thorough to keep on track.

During this process you'll see footage about schools in the Bobirwa region #botswana, meet amazing sponsors, eye screening with Global vision kit, see the humanitarian team, view quality products and more.

I hope you follow and like each of them.

The start to the week has been amazing. Hard and long as I found out Thursday is a public holiday so we pulled the hours together and went extra hard.

The results have been amazing and in 2 days screened around 1000 kids aged 9-14. The team and Wilderness Eco Mentors have been amazing.

10 hours of driving till 8.30pm brought us this morning with #fisheagles in the background.

About

I Started 4x4outfar.com for Overlanding and learning better 4×4’ing to get out of the office and home.

Get back to the places I grew up and remember what it is like not doing the same thing every weekend. It’s great getting the family out for fresh air and braai’s with bonfires in the evening.
