5/22/08 International Towne


Reese had such a great experience with Ameritowne a few months ago, we were very excited to do the next event, this one was much more advanced and we spent almost a month learning and preparing for the day long event where the kids are in charge of running the globe. We studied global economics, trade, tariffs and embargo, natural resources and the lack thereof.. They have 4 regions representing 13 countries and the kids do currency exchange, buying and selling and exploring each countries cultural activities. Reese was in Greece and they were in charge of shipping products to every other country so he was a man of many travels. We learned a lot about geography, population and the vast disparity of wealth and resources.

We studied the material just about every day for a month and it was awesome. Reese was given a special acknowledgment for his awesome customer service and attitude. Luc got to join in the fun and his big brother bought him some great gifts to remember the day.
