In today's materialistic world it has become important for us to teach our kids about roots and about religion. Gurmat Youth Camp is an excellent opportunity for children to learn about religion, learn music, exchange thoughts, meet peers, and make friends. The growing number of participants between the ages of 7-17 and being held for the 10th year show how much the Gurmat Youth Camp has gained in popularity. The children also get to enjoy other recreational activities like roller skating, picnics, games, etc. What's more, participants are offered both traditional Punjabi food as well as pizza, pasta, cereal, etc. Adults also have the opportunity to volunteer.

Khalsa Gurmat Camp
Organized at Gurudwara Sahib in Renton, WA

During vacations our kids usually look forward to the Gurmat Camp. It reflects on the dedication of the volunteers and Gurudwara Sahib management to do it every year. “Khalsa Gurmat Camp” is an excellent opportunity for children to learn about religion, learn music, exchange thoughts, meet peers and make friends. The children also get to enjoy other recreational activities like roller skating, picnics, games, etc. What’s more, the participants don’t have to confine to the Eastern food but are treated the best food including pizza, pasta, cereals, etc. At the same time the adults also get to volunteer. Almost everyone I spoke to enjoyed the camp and wanted it to continue. We hope the organizers will extend it for a month next time.
