Participants of the camp of young scouts from Germany, Great Britain, France, Sweden, Belgium and Luxembourg for two weeks studied the rules of behavior in the forest in the German region of Sauerland, went hiking and got acquainted with the history of Russia. The session was dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the Russian Exodus, according to the Russkoe Pole newspaper.

The organizers noted that due to the pandemic, some of the children and adolescents were unable to take part in the camp, but quarantine restrictions did not interfere with the intensive program. Germany was represented in the camp by young residents of 8 cities.
