African Safari

[del Rosario]

At our last reunion (New River '09) a few of us expressed interest in doing a safari in Africa. If any are truly interested in going to rifle hunt or photo safari in Africa I can assist you in all aspects pertaining to travel and hunting. Also, if there is enough interested in going then I can accompany a small party from beginning to end of their safari. My participation will be of my own expense and I do not receive any compensation of any sort from the safari provider. I just enjoy going to Africa.

If you are interested, you can contact me directly by email at [e-mail] or call me at anytime. I'd be glad to answer any questions. Also, you might want to contact Bert Goodfallow, who has done a couple of safaris in South Africa, and ask him of his interesting experiences there.
