With a series of adventure challenges and STEAM activities, we aimed to enhance their connection with new friends and relax under the natural surroundings. We truly hope to make the most of the refreshing atmosphere at the camp and serve it as a breathing space for young people to pause and refresh from their busy and high-pressure daily lives.
