I just got back from my most favorite week in Kazakhstan.
My friend Hannah just put on the most amazing women’s leadership camp. A large part of why this week was the best ever was that each girl brought something different and new to the table and opened up in a way that made each and every volunteer feel special.
It’s one of those moments when you realize all of your work is worth something and we’re here for a reason. Working with the amazing energy of all of the volunteers this past week has renewed my energy and I hope to do one more big project before I leave: A Fitness Conference.
Camp GLOW in Kokshetau was a huge success! Awesome job Hannah, Rachel, Alix, Katie, Holly and Hil & Caitlin!
WE ROCK. <– check here for awesome pictures!!!

Some how I stumbled across your posting. My daughter is from Kokshetau (2003)-actually Makinka. It nice to see you doing this kind of work in that area.
Wow… that’s amazing! This camp was one of the best ever!!
Where do the girls that you take to the camp come from?
The girls apply for the camp through an application process. Most of the girls came from Kokshetau, but a a few came from near by towns and villages too!
