That's why, after the last two years,The importance of an experience that fully utilizes all five senses and stirs the heartand we feel it is our mission to provide such a venue.

We chose Tokachi, Hokkaido, as the site for our summer camp.

Come out of the Kanto region and join your friends for an irreplaceable experience in the magnificent nature of Hokkaido.
