[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Yeongyang-gun, Gyeongbuk, held the '2022 Firefly Experience Youth Camp' from the 22nd to the 24th, a 2-night 3-day event with about 80 first-year middle school students participating.

This camp was resumed after three years to revitalize youth activities that had been restricted due to COVID-19, aiming for autonomous and creative growth. Through experience-centered programs, it seeks to foster cooperation and patience, as well as build confidence and a spirit of challenge.

About 80 first-year middle school students participated in various programs such as watching professional baseball, exploring Chilgokbo Ecological Park, and experiencing Challenge Town.

The professional baseball viewing at Daegu Samsung Lions Park received great response from local youth who usually do not enjoy cultural benefits. It was a time to watch the thrilling game unfold right before their eyes and cheer loudly with enthusiasm.

Kwon Do-won, Director of the Ecological Park Office, said, "As COVID-19 has eased, we were able to resume the youth camp," and encouraged, "I hope this camp becomes an opportunity for young people to cultivate a broad mind, foster patriotism, and plan and pursue their dreams."
