ok lets see

Khoa Tu Hoc Phat Phap or more commonly known as "camp" among us is a Buddhist Retreat that occurs towards the end of every calendar year. With the inaugural camp occuring in 1999 at somewhere in Sydney, the camps have expanded and grown bigger with each year that has gone by. The order of camps goes: Sydney, Sydney, Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney. Most recently at the 8th Khoa Tu Hoc Phat Phap there were just under 300 people attending of which 94 were youths ranging from 5 to 20 years of age.

At these camps, we get the opportunity to learn more about Buddhism, Buddha and in general how to become a better person. We also get to meet new people from around the country, make new friends and meet old ones. Although we have to wake up early to go chanting and sometimes the accommodation is not very good, camps are fun, exciting and very beneficial.

With the idea given to us by Thay Quang Ba, Huy took it upon himself to create this forum. This forum will hopefully attract many if not all the people who attended camp and provide us with a place where we can communicate with the people that went to camp and have any of our questions relating to Buddhism answered by the monks.
