Chaa Creek's Eco Kids Summer Camp

There's still time to submit essays for Chaa Creek's Children’s Summer Camp Scholarship Program.  They have a short video out about the program.

 

"Every year we team up with a number of private sector businesses to offer a weeklong summer camp scholarship program for Belize's resident school children between the ages of 8 to 13 years old in order to educate them about biodiversity, natural resource conservation, the ancient Maya, traditional healing, and the three "R's" Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.  The program aims to install memorable values that will have an impact on the way children conduct their lives, their relationship with our fragile Earth, and the sustainable development of our future."


In related news, they have another submission for the essay competition.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Essay

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Essay | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Another Eco Kid essay for the Chaa Creek summer kids camp scholarship, this time from Emily Sanchez, and she talks about the 3 R's.  She sums it up well.

 

"After having the opportunity to be an Eco Kid, I will be able to share with others the experience that I had at camp.  I will be able to share with others what I learned at camp, the activities that we did, and the adventures that we had. I will also influence them to become aware of their natural surroundings here in Belize and use what I have learned so that they can become an Eco-Kid.  Reduce, Reuse, And Recycle!"
