Sicily Scout camp in Italy

Ukrainian Scouts took part in the Sicily Summer Scout Camp in Italy, hosted by Agesci Licata 3

Together with Italian Scouts, we shared moments of prayer and reflection, played outdoor games, gathered around the campfire, sang songs, explored each other’s cultures, built a camp kitchen, learned new languages and traditions, and proudly shared Ukrainian customs with our new Scout friends.

This experience became much more than an international camp. We found a true Scout family, where there the values of Scouting, friendship, mutual support, and solidarity.

For our Ukrainian Scouts, the camp also offered something deeply meaningful: a chance to experience peace, take a break from air raid sirens, recharge emotionally, and return home with unforgettable memories from sunny Sicily.

Our heartfelt thanks go to Agesci Licata 3, Anna Sanfilippo, Massimiliano Carrubba, Vito Scalisi (Agesci Salemi1), Don Leopoldo Argento, Angelo Balsamo, Angelo Augusto, Salvatore Caruccio, Giuseppe Scerra, the Morinelliane Sisters, the families of Giulia Grillo and Salvo, Maria Luisa and Edoardo, Sofia, Vincenzo and Rosalia La Cognata, and everyone whose kindness and generosity made this incredible experience possible.
