Tarbes Camille Mazier and Margot Jeanson will participate in the Amazons raid which is scheduled for November in Thailand. They are waiting to live a human and sporting adventure.
“When I learned about the Amazons raid on social networks, I thought about it all night and I said to myself that it was with Margot that I had to do it”. Camille Mazier, 27, psychomotor therapist with children, and her friend Margot Jeanson, 31, recruiter in a temporary employment agency, are like the two fingers of a hand. They are both athletic and practice handball, “but not in the same club”, the only sheet of cigarette paper that separates these two young women, also united by mutual aid towards their neighbor. It is also these values of sport and solidarity carried by the Raid Amazones, which pushed “the handiballeuses”, the name of their team, to take the plunge. This 100% female raid created by television host Alexandre Debanne and open to all ages, all levels of sport and people with disabilities, sets down in Thailand in November. The six days are divided between sports mornings (canoeing, trail running, mountain biking, run and bike, archery and treasure hunting) and afternoons devoted to meeting local populations, in particular to actions in support of an association. “very often based on the education of children”. “It is important for us to play sport for a cause, explain the young women. This is why we have chosen to support the departmental handisport committee which makes it possible to inform and guide people with disabilities towards a practice. adapted sports, whatever the level (leisure, fitness, competition) or the type of handicap. On site, we will also bring various school supplies for school children. This adventure will be rich in human exchanges: inside of oneself, between the two of us, with the other teams and the staff, but above all in contact with the locals “.
Camille and Margot have launched an online jackpot and are calling on partners who would like to support them financially and / or material, knowing that the total cost of their adventure amounts to around 10,000 € and that they wish to donate a part money to the departmental handisport committee.
