Everest '03 banner on the summit of Africa's highest peak
Expedition leader Gary Guller, Charles Minja and the Kili team
carried the TE '03 banner to Africa's highest point, the summit
of Mt. Kilimanjaro at 19,344ft. The team summited at sunrise on
February 22nd and enjoyed the view of the African savannah stretched
out before them. The Kilimanjaro expedition was Stage One of the
18-month Team Everest ‘03 campaign promoting 50 years of progress
in advancing the conditions of people with disabilities. Says Gary:
We took the message to the top of Africa. Next we’ll
take it to the top of the Americas, and finally to the top of the
world in 2003.
