The annual summer event "BRIDGE Summer Camp" was held from July 12th (Fri) to July 23rd (Tue). A total of 226 participants from 33 countries and regions, including 164 11-year-old Children's Ambassadors, 41 adult chaperones, and 21 Peace Ambassadors who are former Children's Ambassadors, have returned safely to their home countries!

Over the course of approximately two weeks, the students not only learned about Japan and Fukuoka through an orientation program, school visit, homestay program, and performance event, but also enjoyed international exchange while experiencing the warmth of Fukuoka children of the same age and many other people from Fukuoka.

The fact that the event was held without any major accidents or injuries during the period is due to the support of APCC volunteers, host families, and the many supporting companies and organizations.

This year's summer program has ended, but we would like to continue working hard towards next year, so we appreciate your continued support and cooperation.

Once again, we at the APCC Secretariat would like to express our sincere gratitude to you all. Thank you very much.
