I´m the right man to talk about summer camps for children and young people in Czeck Repubblic. During my first two mounths of EVS I was in 8 different summer camps of Dlažka, a very active local group of Duha. Club Dlažka organizes every summer a lot of camps for children, young people and also for adults. It´ s not so difficult imagine that this kind of camp is very funny for their participants, because there they can meet new friends and play many games and sports. My own experience confirms that this is true. I met many people every week and I worked in contact with many children of every age. I was with them for a lot of funny and crazy games like for example trifidi, a game that we played with eyes closed in the forest…. try to imagine the madness of this game.
I learned some new sports for me like ringo and softball, even if I liked play expecially football, the only one game that I can play well( of course, I´m italian). These camps are important not only for the fun but also for the fact that the children learn to socialize. For 1 or 2 weeks they live alone without parents and for a lot of them this experience is very exciting. 
In my camps I met not only children but also many young people that every summer works with Dlažka. I was really happy to meet all that people, expecially the girls… All that people were very important for me during all my permanence in the camps to comunicate and to express all my sensations and impressions about my experience. They taught me the few czeck words that I know, and if now I can order something when I go to the pubs, is thanks to them.
Certainly for me not everything was so good and interesting as I just said. I was in two different places in Moravia, Rajnochovice and Buchlovice. These places are perfect for the summer camps, very good to play and to have fun but also very far from the civilization, without internet and sometimes without connection for the mobile telephone. The children don´t care about this, but for me of course was different. Besides it was not so simple for an italian man like me, get accustomed to eat the food in these camps. For example I never tried in my life, before this summer, pasta with sugar, a meal that in this country children loves. I’m honest: I consider past with sugar a very disgusting meal !!!!!!!!.
However, even if you can find pasta with sugar, every summer these camps in Czeck Republic are full of persons who are in those places not just for fun, but also to grow up.
