About

A week away at Pelli, the Helsinki YMCA's camp center on the shore of Lake Lohjanjärvi. Kids sleep in tents on the grounds, swim, play games indoors and out, do crafts, take saunas and end the day at the campfire. Some weeks follow the regular mix; others are built around a wizarding-school storyline. Camps are led in Finnish, so they suit kids who speak it comfortably.
