In the past month CISV London was hard at work planing our first successful activity since our fall minicamp. like many other chapters in Canada we hosted our annual Cookie-a-thon.
During our 12 hour activity we had a total of 35 participants including new travellers and preteens that have a shared interest in making new friends and baking cookies. Even parents came out to partake in the activities and the countless energizers that we did through the activity. Our JB created a brand new activity, where participants were divided up into numerous countries from around the world and learnt a bit about their respective country, the type of government and fun facts like currency, politics, and how much their country was in dept to china, all while trading for the ingredients to make cookies, with the end goal of having the most cookies at the end of the hour.
This year we donated 2596 cookies, with many more being eaten by participants, by the time the sun set on this jam packed day we were all begging to get out of the kitchen and into our beds.
