Come and join 150 young socialists from all around Europe!

ISR is also co-organising
an international youth camp from 1-6 July with the
International Socialists, the Scottish affiliate to the
Committee for Workers' International (CWI). We have
booked a 4-star campsite in Strathclyde National Park with
toilets, hot showers and cooking facilities. Food is
included in the price (see below).
Every morning we will hold a briefing meeting to discuss
the previous days activities and to agree plans for the
day. We will keep a coach with us to ferry us to and from
the different places where actions have been called such
as Faslane and Dungarvel detention centre.
We
are proposing some debates and workshops at the camp.
After all 150 socialists will have plenty to talk about!
