　WHY NOT MAKE THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN

THIS….. AND THIS

      This summer, join the International Conservation（保护）Scouts on a fun-filled holiday with a difference. Year after year, young people from all around the world get together at one of our sixteen conservation camps. Their shared aim（目标）is to help protect the countryside and its wildlife.

      Many animals and plants are in danger of disappearing forever. The dormouse, a kind of mouse, for example, needs woodland plants for food and trees to stay in. Its habitat (栖息地) is being destroyed by man and it needs our help to survive.

On a conservation camp holiday, you’ll learn all about nature and how to protect it. Our trained leaders will be with you and tell you everything you need to know. Because of this, you don’t need any experience, just energy and enthusiasm（热情）. You will explore the countryside and work to ensure the survival (生存) of hundreds of animals and plants and still have plenty of time to enjoy the camp’s excellent sport games and organized nature paths through beautiful scenery.

 The International Conservation Scouts is a world-wide organization, so there must be a camp near you. You can spend a splendid holiday at any of the camps for as little as ￡60, including accommodation(住宿) and food.
