YES Camp . Day 4. Finale

Day 4


The last day. This time, we didn't start our day with  a morning exercise. We had breakfast and went to the hall right after. We had a final "drop me a note" session and they summarized the 10 keys. Then , facilitator Maggie reminisced the past 3 days with each everyone's eyes shut. 




When we opened our eyes, we found a lovely card and an envelope in front of us and were instructed to write a letter to ourselves-which will be mailed to our respective address in a month's time-about what we hope to have achieved by then since this camp. 

Our next activity was a clearing up session consisting of 3 parts. The first part was a session where each group stood in a circle together and apologized to one another if anybody made a mistake towards anyone else. 


The second part was where everyone sat in a circle in their respective groups and passed a candle around. They pass the candle to a member whom they wish to give a word of encouragement to. 


And the third part was a literal clearing up session, where we started cleaning up the hall !

And then came the closing ceremony where prize and cert presentations where given out. 


We had lunch, packed up and boarded the bus afterwards and that concludes YES Camp 2013!! 


All in all, YES Camp was a fantastic experience. Not only did we meet many people but the 10 keys we learnt brought value to the different aspects of our lives. We learnt to appreciate, to take responsibility, to be passionate, to live in the present, to be flexible, to look at the positive side of failure, to cooperate well with other, to communicate well and further more. One of the major characteristics we learnt and practiced throughout camp was TEAMWORK. Campers showed an immense amount of cooperation that you would've thought it remarkable . YES Camp has strengthen bonds between different Leo clubs from all over. Last but not least, YES Camp has brought out the Leo spirit in everyone .

May everyone continue to strive as a proud Leo ! roar roar roar!!
