Israeli Scouts Or Scopus Summer Camp


All-Israeli movement of scouts "Scopus" was founded in 1919 and today it is one and only official national youth movements in Israel and the most numerous as well. It does not refer to any political parties but its activity is protected by law.
On these photos you may see how a summer camp of Scopus looks like. 5000 people simultaneously rest in the camp, if it can be called "rest", of course. All days long the guys are building their camp - from roads to warehouses. They come to an ordinary forest where in some days there appears the whole city. Everything you see on the photos was made by the guys themselves. "Learning through business" is one of the most important scout rules.
Each unit gets its own color and camp theme. Sometimes their constructions reach 6 meters high!
