♫ All my bags are packed…. ♫
Organized chaos ensued at the CAMTA warehouse this evening as all the baggage for Week 1 – medical and personal – was loaded into a van provided by Marc Tardif of Echo Promotions. The bags will be dropped of at Edmonton International Airport at 3:30AM tomorrow, where each volunteer will pick up the hockey bags assigned to him/her to transport to Ecuador.
In order to meet airline baggage weight restrictions, each hockey bag must weigh less than 50 lbs. The volunteers will be staying two to a room in Quito. Each pair of roommates will be responsible for four hockey bags: one with both their backpacks crammed into it and three others filled with medical equipment and supplies.
Volunteers then headed home for a few hours of sleep before leaving for the airport VERY early tomorrow morning.
