GLOW summer school 2013 has started

Similar to the last years it is summer again, we are in Stepanavan and GLOW summer school has started bring together girls from different towns and villages all over Armenia. They got together to open new perspectives and most importantly to discover themselves.

This is the sixth time GLOW summer school is taking place for the Armenian teenagers.  It started on July 1st this time through magical and fun curtains of circus! Let's open the curtains and see what is hidden behind those colors and lights.

If we try to enter the cottages in the resort hotel in Stepanavan in this hot summer weather, we will see a real summer activeness. The hotel staff is preparing the rooms bringing beds, chairs and tables in. In a different room some young people are drawing different circus animals using watercolors. Some people are blowing balloons, others are practicing some dance moves.

Aha! those are counselors of the summer school and they are preparing for the start of summer school and arrival of the campers!

Here they are! the participants who arrived and are all dressed in GLOW red t-shirts. Each one of them is a part of a small home group, where they will jungle the difficult yet magical path towards self development.

Group one: CRYSTAL

Group two: FOCUS-TONUS

Group three: SUN GLOW

Group four: JUMBO

  Can you become an umbrella?

Or an elephant?

 

It is late evening already, but the active life in summer school is not over. Everyone has gathered together near warm and inviting campfire to celebrate the start of the summer school. Let's carefully approach them and listen what they are talking about. Each camper is writing on a piece of paper a characteristic they want to get rid of and putting it in the fire, hopes that same moment to get rid of it, becoming an even better person.
