Annual Outdoor Camp for the children of Pamunugama YMCA was held from 19 to 22 December, 2019 in Kuruvita Camp Center. There were 44 campers including scouts, guides, Makalause Dream School students parents, 5 Scout leaders and family members from Bronnoysund YMCA YWCA Scouts, Pamunugama YMCA leaders and staff.
Despite heavy rain throughout, number of activities took place during the camp. First day the campers put-up tents and settled in the campsite. Second day the pioneering activities was a novel experience and capers managed to make a tower and a table. Campfires, indoor and ourdoor games provided entertainment for the campers. 3 hour hike went to a temple. Warm welcome by the incumbent priest and the villagers with sweets and a tea after a tired walk was a very nice experience and helped to make new friends and relationships.

Having Makalause Dream Students was a highlight of the programme since it was the first outdoor camp for them. It made everyone realized that children with special abilities also could do the things that every-other does with some extra effort and support by the people around them.
Programme was led by the Scout Leader of Pamunugama YMCA with the support of staff and parents. YMCA of Pamunugama thank the scout leaders of Moratuwa for opening up the campsite for us and the Scout leaders of Bronnoysund including Jens Kristian and Kirsten Ostergaard for joining us in the camp.
