THE curtain came down at the Herdmanston Lodge on Saturday evening as the Exodus Gym Kids’ fitness camp concluded with a presentation ceremony.
Twenty-one (21) participants, aged six to 16 years old, were part of the programme which ran for four weeks.

On hand to give the keynote address was President of the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) Godfrey Munroe, who applauded the initiative taken by Team Exodus, and challenged the young prodigies to dream big.
According to Munroe, “Whatever the mind can conceive, you can achieve.”

Also reinforcing the importance of starting to pursue their dreams at an early age, was Managing Director of Herdmanston Lodge Masimba Williams, after whose address the participants received their certificates and medals.

This inaugural fitness camp commenced on July 22.

Participants were taught, through theory and practical sessions, the fundamentals of the main aspects of fitness, strength, speed, power, agility, mobility, and endurance, as well as talks on nutrition and hygiene.
The camp targetted young aspiring athletes who can benefit from the knowledge, as well as kids who needed to kickstart their healthy lifestyle.

In the end, much to the delight of the participants, parents and all officials on hand, the proprietor of Exodus Gym Paul Meusa promised that the kids fitness camp will be bigger and better, and certainly one to watch for next year.
