Personalmente, para mí participar supuso una gran experiencia tanto humana como
formativa, además de divertida.

Announcement of the IAYC 2009

IAYC 2009, August 2nd - August 22nd
45th International Astronomical Youth Camp
Hala Miziowa, Korbielow, Poland

The International Astronomical Youth Camp (IAYC) 2009 will take place in
southern Poland, near the small town of Korbielow at Schronisko na Hala Miziowa,
a mountain hotel in the Beskid Zywiecki district which is part of the outer
Eastern Carpathians. The house is situated close to the 1557 metre high Pilsko
mountain being the second highest peak in the region, and to the Slovak border.

The IAYC is an international youth camp with participants from about 20
different countries. As a participant you work for three weeks in one of the 8
working groups - together with other young people - on astronomical projects.
The projects vary from night-time observations to theoretical problems,
depending on your own interests. The working groups will be led by young
scientists from the IAYC team. The IAYC 2009 will offer a wide range of working
groups and topics, ranging from ancient astronomy, introduction to astronomy and
physics and practical observation groups to computer simulations, CCD photometry
and data reduction; there will be something for everyone from the very beginner
to the ambitious student.

Apart from the astronomical program, there are many non-astronomical activities
such as group games, sporting events, singing evenings, hiking tours and an
excursion. Since it is an international camp, the camp language is English. You
should be able and willing to speak English throughout the camp. It is not
necessary to speak English fluently.

Anyone from 16 to 24 years old and able to communicate in English may
participate in the IAYC 2009. The fee for accommodation, full board and the
whole program, including the excursion, will be 570 Euro. For interested persons
who are in the situation of not being able to pay the camp fee themselves, a
limited number of grants is available.
