[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Yangsan City in Gyeongnam announced on the 9th that it held an opening ceremony for the Habuk-myeon Volunteer Camp.

The Volunteer Camp is the second camp established in Yangsan City following the Sojudong Camp, which opened last year. It is a small-scale volunteer center operated autonomously by camp leaders and volunteers.

With budget support from the Gyeongsangnam-do Volunteer Center and venue provision from Tongdo Art Center, the camp has taken its first step and is scheduled to be fully operational from June after training the camp leaders.

The operating hours are twice a week (Tuesday and Thursday) from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Residents wishing to volunteer can visit the camp or contact the Yangsan City Volunteer Center.

Administrative Director Yeon Jae-hwan said, “We hope the Habuk-myeon Volunteer Camp will serve as a gateway for more residents to take an interest in volunteer activities and participate easily, and contribute to regional development and community formation through various volunteer programs tailored to local characteristics.”
