The Armenian Relief Society (ARS) announced on Friday that it is accepting counselor applications for the 2018 installment of Camp Javakhk.
“Camp Javakhk is looking for qualified candidates at least 18 years of age for an unforgettable summer,” read a part of the announcement.
Camp Javakhk is program of the ARS that consists of day camps in the towns of Akhalkalak, Akhaltskha, Ninotsminda, and Dzalka within the Armenian-populated Javakhk region of Georgia. These camps are organized and planned by a committee of Armenian youth from the Eastern U.S.
