Arielle. The Young Rescuer. Goes to Belarus

My name is Arielle Leeman and I am 13 years old. I am lucky enough to have been selected as one of seven to represent our country at the Young Rescuers International Rally held in Belarus. For the past few months I have been learning and training with my teammates preparing to compete in basic life safety competitions. I can’t wait to have the opportunity to see some of the cultural and historic sites as well as make lasting friendships with others from around the world! Thanks for following!

We start with Training

Our team had been selected, and now the work was to begin. We needed to learn about First Aid, Fire Safety, create a skit, raise money... lots to do. Here, Leo and Roman were giving us a good start.

We thought the Beach Boys "Surfin USA" might be a good way to represent the West Coast, and "Cotton Eye Joe" line dancing could be a great way to show a little country style.

The slide show is coming together. Delanie is reading about our country
