Verdell and Rob would like to thank everyone who came out to the Nelson and Kamloops Evenings in Bhutan and showed support for our project. We raised roughly $2000 and met many fine and interested people in the process.
We'd also like to thank our volunteers who made the events happen, including a fine kamloops native who delighted in being treated with needles in front of 25 strangers during intermission. A first for Rob!
Next on the agenda is the finalization of the formal proposal to the Bhutanese Health Minister to be submitted next month. The response to this document will give clear direction as to where our next efforts are to be applied.
We are getting requests for "An Evening in Bhutan" from a number of towns in BC and hope to follow up on these leads. Events will be posted on the blog. If you are interested in hosting the BPMI in your community, please contact Rob at bconline@hotmail.com
May will be an odd month logistically for the BPMI staff as Verdell is paddling a kayak around the Queen Charlottes for three weeks in May and Rob is off to Spain to treat riders prepping for the Tour de France. We have no idea what Zach is up to... the man can be anywhere at any time. So in the spirit of enjoying spring and getting the job done, wish us the best in our logistical challenges and steady humble efforts to make this project a go.
Thanks again everybody!
