We are glad and excited that you chose to be part of our 2018 Gurmat Camp at Tampa Gurdwara! The theme this year is Living the Shabad Guru! Shabad Guru - Guru Granth Sahib is our Religious Scripture, a compilation of Hymns with a common Philosophy written by our Gurus, Prominent Bhagats and some other poets from Indian Subcontinent. Our objective for next five days is to learn as much as about Shabad Guru and be very proud of our heritage, what we are, where we come from and how do we learn to live by the Shabad Guru - Guru Granth Sahib. The volunteers have worked hard to make camp as organized as possible. We hope you all will find the arrangements satisfactory and continue to be part of Tampa Gurmat camps for years to come! The camp is both educational and recreational. In addition to Gurmat, History, Kirtan, Panjabi sessions, you will also be doing fun activities such as Group games, Creative work, Soccer, Running around and much more etc. Please take some time to go over the folder contents to acquaint yourself with camp plans and other details provided. Let’s learn from our Guru and try to live according to its’ teachings! Guru Fateh, Tampa Gurmat Camp Volunteers! Address: 15302 Morris Bridge Rd, Thonotosassa, FL 33592 Tel.
