Fun and lasting friendships await youngsters lucky enough to attend a summer camp this year.
The YMCA of Hong Kong will take in about 2,000 young people aged five to 17 at its Adventure and Sports Skills camps in July and August.
The camps will be held at various locations in the SAR.
YMCA Camping and Community Programmes manager Manoj Moorjani said: 'Our camps seek to strengthen each child's self-confidence while developing their character, enabling them to bring out the very best in themselves.' He added that the theme for this year's camps was 'Our Home is Hong Kong - International City of the PRC'.
'We hope that this theme will allow us to explore and appreciate the richness of the diverse cultures and heritage of the people in our unique city as we participate together in exciting learning activities this summer,' he said.
The adventure camps will feature excursion trips to a dairy farm, Po Lin monastery and other places of interest around Hong Kong.
