This blog is for YMCA Calgary youth delegates to share their experiences as they visit our partners at YMCA Ukraine. International YMCA partnerships allow us to build global awareness through real relationships. We share knowledge and resources while we learn from each other. Young leaders develop skills and confidence to advance peace, social justice and dignity in their own community.

Wow
So we are on day 5 of camp and I cannot believe that everyday is just getting better and better. We are having an amazing time and learning tones. Jillian and I are constantly amazed by the leaders and children here, they are teaching us so much. Yesterday was a great day we played floor ball, then had a great drama session, followed by some family time and a disco. The dance was great, one little boy danced the entire time without stopping, he just loved it. The smiles and laughter are a plenty here and it is so great to be a part of this camp. They are really doing a fantastic job and giving a true YMCA experience to these kids. Many memories will be made and many lives changed for sure. It's really hard to describe but this is something special.
