An event we probably will NOT attend

This sign near us is promoting a fundraiser for the Bududas, victims of a mudslide that wiped out many homes.  Among the entertainment at the event is: "Live circumcision of five Bududa orphans."

Our friend Asia tells us the boys involved are usually about 14, or as young as 10 "if they are ready." She saw this once, "and I have no desire to ever see it again." She did say the boys never flinched.

We usually want to attend cultural things in the pursuit of education, but I think we'll pass on this one.
