Omega chapter sends 10 local boys to Sixth District Camp
It was an exciting day for 10 young men from Winston-Salem when they left their parents, and Psi Phi Chapter brothers to take a bus ride to camp Hanes Conference Center in King, N.C.
They were going to attend the Sixth District of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc. Boys Summer Leadership Camp. The camp ran from July 1 to July 6, with some of the young men being away from home for the first time.
During the week, the boys enjoyed all the activities camp Hanes has to offer. Those activities included swimming, canoe paddling, going down the water slide and zip line, as well as horseback riding. They also received life skills instructions from camp counselors and guest speakers.
Brothers from all over North Carolina and South Carolina were there and shared their life experiences with the campers.
Psi Phi Chapter selects the boys and pays all the cost for the boys to attend the camp. The ages for the Sixth District Boys Leadership camp are 8 to 14.
