We have the joy to let you know that the Rotary Club of Jackson won gold with our international Integrated Solar Cooking Project during the 2009 Rotary District Conference of District 5190 in Reno. Our "Teaching the Teachers" in Brazil during 12 weeks in 2008 was a success. During the stay of our team we held 12 hands-on workshop, teaching not only how to cook and pasteurize water with solar energy, but also how to make the solar cookers, rocket stoves and hay baskets (all elements of the Integrated Solar Cooking Method). As a result we have in Brazil a team of 16 students perfectly able to teach how to use and make the solar cooking devices.
Please give us the publicity this important event deserves!
