The camp is great !It was engaging and informative and I have taken many valuable lessons & values with me. This camp has inspired me !Thank you for making this camp an awesome experience and I will come again next year. Cai Mi Mi ,President , IAC TKGS

President , IAC TKGS

This is my 2nd year attending ILTC and I feel that this ILTC is MUCH BETTER than last year which was boring talks & lectures that went on for hours.I learnt a lot about leadership. I also learnt that when planning a project, we must “start with the end in mind…” I also learnt many other things in this camp. This year’s camp was much more fun. Thank you for planning such an enjoyable and interesting camp. Bernice ,President , IAC PLMGS

President , IAC PLMGS

I enjoyed the camp. I have learnt many leadership skills, good tips on how to run my Interact Club and that we are all - SERVANT LEADERS. The trainers are very knowledgeable and shared their experience and telling us about helping the poor in other countries. Now I am inspired to help them. I would like express my thanks to the Rotarians for organising this camp.Philene ,President , IAC Chung Cheng High Sch

Dear Uncle Leslie & Uncle JimmyThis camp is better than the one last year. HONEST ! Last year we literally listened to the Rotarians talk and give us lectures on various topics. But this year it is very DIFFERENT !!! Thank you…Love,Selina,Vice President , IAC PLMGS

The camp was AWESOME !I’d like to thank all of you who put in a lot of time & effort in this amazingly awesome camp.I’ve always thought that Interact is just about planning an event and then carrying it out to help the needy. However, I learned from Uncle Leslie that “there is community service and MEANINGFUL community service that makes a REAL DIFFERENCE…” I have learnt a lot about Interact, it’s history and it’s goals. I will be back next year when I’m in JC.We Love You,Lixin, Community Service Dir, IAC TKGS Serve with Love & Care

Dear Uncle JimmyI think the new method of not having too many Rotarians lecturing is better this year as it was too boring last year.Through this camp I learned about Interact and the different qualities of an Interact leader and many more.This new method is EXCELLENT !Qing Yang, President, IAC Evergreen Sec School

Dear Uncle Jimmy & Uncle LeslieThe camp was far more fun than last year.I found the tips for Presidents very useful.The examples of meaningful projects done before by other Interact Clubs was very inspirational ! Radhika, President, IAC GIIS (Queenstown)

In this Interact Leadership Training Camp, I learnt many new skills as well as a deeper insight of Interact. It has been a real eye opener for me.I learnt more about being a club Secretary, on International Understanding and the role & duties as Interactors. I also made many new friends and about working together as a team.It was a fun learning experience for me. Many thanks to the trainers, Rotarians, Rotaractors & volunteers who organised this camp for us.Lena LohClub Secretary, IAC Chung Cheng High School

This camp has educated me about Interact in so many ways. I am certainly more informed on my duties as Vice President and I feel more motivated & inspired after attending the PETS training. Uncle Leslie is a very motivating speaker.The project management workshop gave me a much better idea of how to plan & organise projects. I learned that finding out what the beneficiary really needs is very important. Only then can we really help the needy.I am really inspired by the Cambodia trip done by the Dunman Interactors !

Dear Uncle Jimmy & Uncle LeslieTo be honest, I wasn’t looking forward to this camp. All my seniors told me it will be boring as they had suffered in past camps. On the contrary, it was really fun and interesting. ..and I’m not just being nice.The workshops on community service & project management really gave me a new perspective on choosing a MEANINGFUL community service.I will always remember the story about the $70 goat and the importance of making a real impact in the lives of the beneficiaries. This camp will definitely change the way I do things as a Community Service Director.

I’ve enjoyed this ILTC camp.I attended the Treasurer’s training and IU workshop and I found them quite meaningful. I didn’t realise just how many procedures there are for Treasurers & Finance committee to observe.I learnt how important it is for me to take care and pay close attention to the usage of club funds.The IU talk has made me very keen about going overseas to help others.Quan YunClub Treasurer, IAC Chung Cheng High School

And the FINAL proof…ILTC 2009They heard that the ILTC was so goodthat they want tobecome INTERACTORS too…
