Work description:
We, the staff of the Teens’ Camp, are responsible for setting up the Camp in such a way that it serves the teens, the parents and the festival as a whole.

Our ambition is to make the Teens’ Camp a place where the teenagers can experience themselves, their creativity and their communication from different perspectives supported by the group energy, the natural environment and yogic practice and wisdom.

This requires a strong commitment and reliability to guarantee the smooth running of our programme. We set up the structure and the schedule in the team together before the official beginning of the festival. According to the amount of work exchange chosen, everyone is personally responsible to stick to the agreement made beforehand. In return every member of the staff gets free space to enjoy the festival on his/her own. The participation in White Tantric Yoga is guaranteed for one day, in the last years it has even been possible to participate for two days for those who wished.

Every morning we will meet before 8 A.M for a group meditation and then have breakfast together at the Teens’ Camp.

In the last two years Teens’ camp has spent two days overnight at Chateau Anand. We will see if this can also happen this year. It is a great opportunity to get to know this exceptional location and to experience the company and the conviviality of the young Sangat. Your participation and mobility is highly appreciated – and required.

The Teens’ Camp closes in the evening of Peace Prayer Day (last day of the Festival), all the equipment needs to be taken care of and properly stored for next year’s Festival. It is planned to have a final get together after the All Camp Dinner for reflection and a meditation to close.

To work in Teens’ camp, it is necessary to arrive by Friday evening (day before the Festival) at 5 P.M. for our first meeting (which takes place at the Teens’ Camp). The second meeting is on Saturday after the Set Up beginning at 8 A.M. The Teens’ Camp opens at 3 P.M.
