Youngsters aged 13 to 17 are invited to join a development camp at Sai Kung Outdoor Recreation Centre from March 28 to 31.

 

The camp organised by the Leisure & Cultural Services Department aims to foster all-round development.

 

By participating in various adventure, mountaineering and sports activities, the campers will realise their own potential, boosting their development.

 

Special emphasis will be placed on sharing and team-building so campers will learn the significance of communication in wider social settings.

 

A ton of fun

A wealth of activities, including rope courses, sports climbing, archery, roller skating and various games, will be offered.

 

The fee which will cover meals and accommodation is $233 for full-time students and $312 for non full-time students.

 

Quotas for the camp will be allocated by drawing lots if applications exceed the 216 places available.

 

Application forms are obtainable from 18 District Leisure Services Offices and the department's venues with the Leisure Link service.

 

Completed application forms should reach Sai Kung Outdoor Recreation Camp either by mail or by fax.

 

For enquiries call 2792 3828 or 2791 2245.
