"G8 Action Network Convergence-center / Camp Work Group"

We've determined the two camp sites!
Currently, we're in the final stages of discussion with the administration.

The two sites are:

1) Toyoura-cho, Hokkaido - Toyoura Forest Park
2) Sobetsu-cho, Hokkaido - Orofure Rest House (Orofure Hotto Piaza)

Both camp venues are next to Toyako-cho, the town hosting the summit.

The camp will be held for four days during the summit:

July 6 (evening) ~ July 9

Please bring your own sleeping bag and tent.
We hope to see you all!
