PARTICIPATION CERTIFICATE
Hi everyone, if you want a participation certificate and you did not get my email, please let me know
I also wanted to take this opportunity to remind you that the blogs that you were given the task of updating at the festival can still be updated. We are hoping that with 37 countries in attendance that we can have some of the blog posts translated into your native languages so that people searching for the EXPO in 2012 can find out more information from people from the same country using the same language as them. If you need the blog passwords I will post them at the bottom of this email. Please try your best to add some more information and photos to them, every team should please try and add some things, but especially the winning team.
Finally, I know I mentioned this in the last email,(emailing an organiser from the Yeosu City Government to say thanks) but actually if everyone can send one more email to the deputy mayor (5625@korea.kr and 101bb@korea.kr) because, even though in our eyes the youth camp was a success, there is talk of the camp not going ahead next year because of some problems that occured during the camp. If everyone can email this person and mention how pleased that they were with the camp and that because of the camp (and the people that organised you- ICI) you really want to return to Korea either next year and/or 2012 for the world expo, I appreciate everyone taking a few minutes to do this so we can do it again next year.
Also, thanks for everyone that has been uploading pictures to the facebook group, I, along with my co-workers will be trying to find the best one next Friday, so keep uploading them,

WHAT TO BRING!
Hi everyone, not long now, I know some people have already arrived- Daniel D, Mark, Daniel G Augusto, Josh, Marina, but for the rest that haven't here is a basic list of things to bring: summer clothes-it is hot in Korea so bring plenty of things to wear-shirts, shorts, skirts, underwear, socks, swimming costume, swimming goggles, camera, shoes, water shoes, toiletries, small bag-to carry around each day, sunglasses, sunscreen, mosquito repellent, stuff to show about your country-post cards, photos, maybe some CD's of your home country's music. You can also bring a laptop-we will have wireless internet etc. of course your passport, and a photocopy of it. I also suggest having at least 50,000 Korean Won in cash just in case. Medication

YEOSU HOME STAY
As you may be aware some gracious families of Yeosu have offered to open up their homes to people form around the world, the following people have either asked to experience this or have been lucky enough to have been randomly chosen to do so. These are the people that will be doing Yeosu home stay on the Fri/Sat/Sun nights of the festival.
