ACTION CAMPS
CAMPS FROM 13 AGES WITH FOCUS ON "ACTION"
Even though things are changing faster and faster in today's world and the digital age has changed the way our children grow up, many things remain the same:
The fun and excitement we experienced in holiday and youth camps, the friends we made and the joy of next time!
When we think back, we have learned many valuable lessons for ourselves and our future lives. As the founder and leader of a large scout troop, Scotty was already in his youth interested in accompanying young people in their development. At TAF we would like to pass on exactly these experiences and values to your children...
