Guys,I too share Wangai's dilema.torn btwn 'appeasing' your potential employers and the project.not to mention how hard our Internships are hard to come by-the applications,interviews travel....- and there aint many firms localy.my internship is frm 1st feb and the director of th firm sort to know how i'll juggle btwn th internship and the project now that i am an employee of the firm?i can foresee him granting me 5days if i plead-for the pilot in march.i thus am of the opinion that if i dont go for the pilot within now and 1st feb b4 i start my internship,we may have to find an alternative guy.but i will be around for the pilot certainly.its a hard choice..... Regards,

Thats true but what about the previsit? But I understand. On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 3:38 PM, Abbas Mahmoud abbasjnr@hotmail.com wrote:
We can't do it on weekends: most schools are fully functional during the weekdays - meaning that there's a high probability that you won't find most staff/students at the school premises on a Saturday.

I love the far we've come, and there is no looking back. I would really love to lead the team heading to Nyeri. However, am really held on attachament and would mean working even on Saturdays if thats cool.

Impressive work guys! I like the progress made so far. I think Wangai could be the team leader for nyeri since he's [possibly] the only one familiar with the area.

Great progress and thumbs up to all the Team Lead-Abbas. As regards the Kakamega Team. -Lead-Limoke Oscar -IT Guy-Alex Wafula -Paraphernalia-Sarah Osano
David,perhaps your connection with the MP could help us spread the whole project to all other Constituencies perhaps as their (MP's) CDF projects.Then we would kill tow birds with a single stone :) (get the funding and carry out the project)

Hi Abbas,
thanks for this detailed and quick answer.
Of course I understand that the Anniversary - and your first public event! - was much more important than finishing the bylaws. I am happy to see that you have already a schedule to get that part done as well.
The chapters meeting is only for recognised chapters but there have been exceptions in edge-cases, and I think WMKE is such an edge-case. Furthermore, if you publish the finalized bylaws it is likely that you will be a recognised chapter until the end of March. I will try to get an answer from the organisers - though I have already asked last week without getting a response.
Keep up the spirit and good work!
