Each delegation consists of two boys and two girls, accompanied by an adult leader. The camp is run by adult staff and supported by junior counselors aged 16-17. It creates a safe and fun environment where children participate in educational, cultural, and recreational activities, fostering lasting friendships and learning how to communicate, cooperate, and live together.
