Picture a Day - Guarded

Day 4 - Guarded We ended up with 3 teams of guards at the same time. Police, private armed-guards and our own guys. Guarding us from the guards. Truth is, guy on the right really started enjoying the Fun Fairs more every day!

Picture a Day - Crowds

Day 4 - Crowds
I remember telling our Tjeko Academy students: "We'll start with 500 kids a day...".
Their eyes almost popped out. But as it turned out, even with many more, those guys were ready for them!

Picture a day - the (almost) blind

On the 3rd day of Fun Fairs, a group of about 10 blind and almost blind children came to visit. For me this was the first 'watery eyes' moment.

National Agricultural Show 2011

Phase 1 of the Tjeko Fun Fair project is being concluded with an impressive presence at the National Agricultural Show in Jinja. During this show, promoting new farming tecniques for the Ugandan farmer, there is a LOT of entertainment availible for the general public. On the 16 acres that the show covers, more than 35% is reserved for 
ENTERTAINMENT. 
Tjeko is new at this show, and allows children to enjoy some Tjeko activities for the price of a mango! For only 15cents children can go write the Tjeko Karts, enjoy a round of mini-golf, or spent some time jumping on the trampolines. 
Tjeko wants to test its concept in this first phase, and our participation at the show shows us what kids really are willing to pay for. Every day our tickets sales have DOUBLED. Today we are estimating to sell more than 400 tickets just today, putting our total well over 1000 and we are just half way the week!
