Aid Projects 09/10The Asanvari Appeal is still active with the goal over the next two years to extend the power supply to the Clinic and the School. An application to the Pacific Development and Conservation Trust will be lodged later this year to help there. Savusavu Yacht Club have asked for our assistance with their Junior Sailing. The club currently has a number of Optimists and are looking to expand their Laser fleet. The club has a very active and competitive junior fleet and we will be exploring ways we can help. We are also looking to club members for suggestions here. Last but not least, the “Rag of the Air”, Jim Bandy at Also Island needs an additional SSB so he can simulcast on 4 as well as 8 megs. If you have an old set you would like to donate, drop us a line. |

Asanvari UpdateA huge thanks to everyone that contributed in both monetary and practical ways. ICA succeeded in not only placing three moorings in the bay in the 2008 cruising season but also upgraded the power generation and reticulation to the villiage.
