With the initiative of President Mikheil Saakashvili 5 youth patriotic camps will be opened this summer in Georgia and will receive 15 thousand 16-20 year old teenagers.

The teenagers will have all the conveniences there: showers, comfortable camps, high quality food, modern recreation centers, discos and sport centers.
