ACTIVITY PROGRAMME FOR THE YOUNG OF MAZARRON

The Youth Council of the City of Mazarrón has designed a leisure activity programme for the first time for young people in the municipality of Mazarrón, ie for those between the ages of 14 and 35. This was released by Youth Councillor, Andres Valera, who explained all about the workshops and activities, of which the vast majority are free.

The programme started with Laughter Therapy workshop in November that was hugely popular and therefore may take place again because of its success.  The next activity, which is free and will be held in December is a bicycle repair workshop, followed by a free First Aid course. Yoga, tai chi, reiki and male and female football completes the December programme.

The programme resumes in January with a ski trip to Sierra Nevada (Granada) at a price of €220, a free digital photography workshop and as the prominent activity, a Monitor Course in Leisure and Recreation at the price of €220  will run for three months. In this training course, a free course covering Routes and Trails will be held in March and will train future hiking instructors.

In February, a 2 day golf introduction for only €10 is taking place, and in March, a crafts workshop is planned. By April, more adventurous athletes go climbing to Alicante at the price of  €25 and those wishing to learn relaxation techniques, may go free to the Massage Workshop. A  kayak trip down the river Segura at the price of €20 complete this programme.

Said the Mayor of Mazarrón, Ginés Campillo, "this annual programme is a commitment to our youth, to motivate them and to offer quality programme activities,  not only to occupy their leisure time, but also to provide training.
