BACK TO THE CULTURE THE FIFTH ANNIVERSARY CHAMPA YOUTH CAMP 2010 IN SACRAMENTO Sacramento, June 1, 2010 Invitation letter Our dear Champa Youths and families, The weather gets warmer, the summer is here , and we are again “Back To the Culture!”- A popular ‘Champa Youth Camp. It has been 5 years since we first started the first Champa Youth Camp in 2005 under the theme “Back to the Culture” in hope of bringing the youths together. Every year was a success. We have seen new faces, new organizers, new activities, new sweet memories..., but not yet new places. Again welcome back to Sacramento, an old place with new warm welcoming and fantastic activities. Change! Let’s make a difference, Let’s make it truly for youths. This year will be less of formal open- ing ceremony and speeches. Activities will be well organized from the beginning to the end full of action. We will introduce a new game called “Champa Treasure Hunting Game” a variation version of SURVIVOR which will train our youths of the strength, communication, leadership, and team work. The game will take place on land, river, and jungle. So our dear Champa Warriors be ready. Beside the big game, other activities such as water jar competition, soccer, volley ball, tug o’ war, wrestling, etc... will be arranged accordingly. This year, the fifth Anniversary of “Back to the Culture” another Youth Camp will take place at the beautiful Folsom Lake, Sacramento on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th of this coming July, 2010. Please help spread the words and come supporting our youths. ‘We extend this invitation to you, your family, and your communities to come join with us in this great event of fun, education, and gathering.
