Poland – Over 1,450 Youth Participate in 2025 Winter Camps Across the Krakow Province
Krakow, Poland – March 2025 – The Youth Ministry Sector of the Salesian Province of Krakow (PLS) recently summarized the success of the 2025 winter holiday activities, which saw 1,478 children and young people participate in 27 different programs across the province and beyond.
A total of 287 animators, educators, and 39 Salesians were involved in organizing these activities. Among the programs was the "Salesian Winter 2025" camp for underprivileged children aged 7-14, held in Zakopane from January 25-31. Another highlight was "Skiing with the Salesians 2025," where students from the Salesian School in Oświęcim traveled to the Dolomites in Italy for a week-long ski camp at the Don Bosco Alpine Retreat.
All activities were conducted in the Salesian spirit, incorporating the Eucharist and prayer while teaching values such as friendship, respect, and hospitality. These experiences not only provided recreation but also helped young participants build healthy relationships and personal growth.
