This year the Summer Go Camp will take place from Thursday 4th July through to 7th July and will be held at the campsite “Apple Island” where we already have had great summer camps in the last few years. At the Summer Go Camp, we spend most of the time playing Go, of course! We also have a lot of fun and make lots of new friends! Go is the main thing at the Camp, however there will also be tons of other activities in the camp as well as at the campsite “Apple Island”. “Apple Island” offers various facilities such as a beach, boat & bicycle rentals, sports fields, tennis courts and a sauna. There is also a restaurant and a bar. There are various accommodation options for camp participants to suit all budgets.
