\t\t\t\t108 participants and 9 staff members were able to experience this during the Taekwon-do Summer Camp, which took place from 8\u201320 August 2017 at the Children\u2019s Holiday Home in Por\u0105bka.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The camp was attended by athletes from the Krakowskie Centrum Taekwon-do, supported by groups from I\u0142awa, Wieliczka, Gd\u00f3w, Krapkowice and Gogolin. The camp\u2019s 12 days were filled with a busy programme.
\nThree training sessions a day were planned, and that is exactly what took place. Before breakfast there were patterns, before noon kicking training, and before dinner sparring. After dinner and mini disco, coach Klaudia led additional hip-hop dance classes.
\nThere was no shortage of other events either. Taking advantage of the centre\u2019s facilities, the participants played football and held a table tennis tournament. There were also art and literary competitions. The christening of our new campers took an interesting form\u2014it took place at 12:30\u2026 at night!
\nThe first of the two planned trips was a visit to the Forest Park of Surprises in Ustro\u0144. There, visitors could admire fallow deer, roe deer, goats and young deer walking among them, as well as wild boar and bison separated by railings. The greatest attraction was the presentations and flight displays of owls and birds of prey: a white-tailed eagle, goshawk and buzzard.
\nWhen the weather became more stable, our entire group went to the swimming pool in Andrych\u00f3w. The brand-new facility, in its open-air area, offered a 50-metre pool, a huge recreational pool, a paddling pool, a slide, a beach volleyball court and green space.
\nThe camp ended with an examination for student grades, followed by a bonfire with sausage roasting. Most importantly for the organiser and, above all, the participants, despite such a large number of people, there was not a single need to visit a healthcare facility.
\nTo sum up, Por\u0105bka was great. We will return there next year in the second half of August.<\/p>\n
