Summer Camp in Shvanidzor
In June-July 2016, HRI held a 2 week long educational summer camp in the village of Shvanidzor, Armenia.
Our team of 15 passionate leaders taught classes in Health and Hygiene, Yoga, Environmental and Sustainable Living, Computer Literacy, Social Issues, Dance, Arts and Crafts, and Photography. Camp leaders were students from UCSB, UCLA, UC Berkley, Columbia University, Glendale Community College and Palo Alto High School. Take a look a the pictures below and don't forget to check out our blogs for daily reflections from each team member! |

Summer Camp in Pictures
It’s going to be very hard to leave Shvanidzor not because the bathroom amenities are so comfortable (sarcasm); not because we’ve finally gotten good at swatting flies and dodging bugs and we’re not going to have as much use for that skill anymore; not because the food here has exponentially more taste units than food in the States; not even because of the amazing pomegranate wine you can only find here. It is going to be hard to leave this village because of the love and respect that has surrounded us since we got here. |
