2nd Week – Verkhovyna Recreational Overnight Camp – 2026

And so the camp at “Verkhovyna” has come to an end.

The last full day, Saturday, was packed from morning to night. The participants enjoyed a sports tournament, a traditional camp wedding, and a festive bonfire with wonderful performances from each group.

Sundays are always a little sad. After morning Mass, we had lunch together, followed by the camp’s closing ceremony. The farewell was bittersweet—everyone was happy, grateful for the moments we shared… and, without a doubt, ready for a good night’s sleep!
