The event took place on January 19th
On January 19 we participated in the Youth Forum organized by Kaunas Union of Youth Organizations “Round Table” “Youth in Municipality: WHAT’S NEXT?”. During the event with eurodesk.lt and zinauviska.lt we discussed programs that offer volunteering, work or travel opportunities. Later in the work groups we examined the most pressing issues for us as young people. In the first working group, a discussion was held on the activities of the Youth Council in our municipalities. The members of the second working group explored cooperation with other district organizations. We shared our experiences and took new ideas from other forum members to help us improve our club.

The project received € 6,888.
As Christmas approached, we were delighted that the European Solidarity Corps program, launched a year ago, had fully funded the Trashsitis (garbage city) project presented by the Round Table of the Rokiškis Union of Youth Organizations at its first call for projects (16 October 2018). The hard work and time spent by the team of young people in developing this idea paid off with € 6888 funding. So we look forward to the next 2019. The project will continue throughout the year and there will be many activities! Summer camp, training, zero waste dinner, garbage collection contest and many more await us. We do all of this to make people, and especially young people, aware of one of the most pressing issues of our time – waste of natural resources. Sometimes we don’t even think about how much a packet of chips, a shoulder drop, or a plastic bottle bought and casually pressed in the park beneath the bench can make a difference … Really, a lot! Therefore, during the project we will raise people’s awareness of 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle), and contributing to land conservation. The land is our home, which, unfortunately, we care too little about. We will build a “mini Rokiškis” to help people understand the scale of the problem and the garbage collected during the project. If we do not change anything, this is the city that awaits us in the future. The whole project team is looking forward to starting Trashsitis and is ready to go! We will be waiting for you in the activities organized by the project because – from where we will start changing the world, if not from ourselves!

Money allocated for the project – 500 euros.
The camp aimed to develop youth citizenship, involvement in public organizations and emphasized the importance of volunteering. On the occasion of the centenary of the independence of Lithuania, 24 young people covered 100 kilometers by various means of travel: hiking, kayaking, cycling. The participants developed critical thinking, leadership, teamwork, decision-making and public speaking skills through informal methods.
The camp participants shared their impressions and memorable moments
“It’s fun to see young people who are determined to organize a camp,” said Ignas Dainys, a participant of the camp, who was impressed by canoeing and night hiking. “The night hike showed what people really are like – I watched them behave in certain situations, the impact of a variety of tasks,” he said.
Erika Leitonaitė remembered her heartfelt communication: “I was able to reach anyone and find common threads in the conversation.” Besides, she learned to not give up halfway into the challenge, to express her opinion.
Gabija Miškeliūnaitė overcame her fears and decided to register for the camp. The girl is delighted because the memories remain indelible. “During the night hike, I learned a lot of useful things that didn’t seem to matter. For example, to better navigate an existing area you need to lift your eyes to the sky! ”She shared her impressions.
“After seeing the initiative group interact with each other, I decided to let them deal with one week of my life in camp. Physical endurance, self-analysis and teamwork, I thought, were the best I could give myself.
A week of physical and emotional endurance tests, laughter, dancing, “tarzankės”, delicious-tasting noodles, sleeping in a tent, sleeping faces and nighttime bathing in the lake showed that happiness can be found in the simplest of things: human relationships, nature, leg pain and emotional fractures.
I am extremely grateful to have such wonderful friends who take the initiative and create things that will change people and their lives forever. ”- Greta Minkevičiūtė shared her memories.
Members of the camp steering group shared their impressions
“When I was asked if I wanted to organize a camp, I immediately agreed. I knew it would take a lot of responsibility and time, but I couldn’t refuse. I am only fifteen and I had the opportunity to organize a camp – I am extremely happy, ”said Rokas Kaulakis.
“The camp was a summer event that I won’t forget for a long time. Already in February we started organizing the camp. I spent my free time writing the project, brainstorming, finding methods, communicating with partners and other organizational work. The result surprised me: the participants were happy. Together with the initiative group, we didn’t forget that 2018 is the centenary of Lithuania, so we wanted to mention it. Our goal was to travel 100 km in different ways – we achieved it within 7 days. The biggest and most indelible impression during the camp was the communication between the participants. Thanks to the busy program and team building methods all the participants got together very quickly and I did not notice a single one who didn’t adapt. It was a huge adventure of my summer, for which I first have to thank myself. ”- Ernestas Jasiūnas shared his experience of organizing the camp.
“Becoming an organizer, not a participant, was a completely spontaneous idea. I offered myself without thinking – I wanted to try something new. As I was writing the project, I began to realize the responsibility of organizing a camp. Now I can safely say that I do not regret it at all because I have worked with an amazing team and gained a lot of useful experience. Impressed by the changes in thinking, behavior and openness of some participants during the camp. I think I found a lot of new and interesting people after this camp that I could safely call close friends, ”said Ąžuolas Rudnickas.
“Organizing a camp is not a new experience for me, but every time I find something to take from it. I can safely say that being a part of an organizational group is much more enjoyable to me than just being a participant. A sense of responsibility for each participant pushes you out of your comfort zone, becoming someone who makes important decisions not only for yourself, but for the remaining 23 participants. It allows you to grow, learn from mistakes or make very good decisions. Traveling camp was a challenge both physically and emotionally. I never thought that walking more than 20 km a day affects the emotions you become addicted to. Once again, I realized the importance of the team you work with. It was good to see us all becoming much more united and determined to fight for each other. What struck me most was the advanced attitude and discovery of some of the participants. I think the purpose of the camp was accomplished with a lot, ”said Aistė Lukoševičiūtė.

Everything that happened in the last week kept us busy, encouraged to climb out of our comfort zone and forget about various fears. We ran into a completely different environment where technology and social networks did not stick to the heels. We have gained new experience, skills, that have long been trapped in the desire to get out in the daylight. We felt inner freedom, refreshment, recessions and sudden ups and downs. Numerous things provoked to surrender, but we only got stronger, we grew up with “thicker skin” and step by step toward a team that was not just a group meeting for a good time. During the camp “Atjunk” we experienced a lot. Even the smallest detail itself contributed to the final result.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image img_size=”” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”zoom”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”Rokiškis Youth Organizations Union ‚The Round Table‘ summer camp „To the left/ To the right“” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]
Camp “To the left/to the right” gave a missing piece of the puzzle, which allowed to see a little more than in the beginning of the camp. From 16 to 20 of August there were many beautiful and unforgettable things in the countryside of Žiūkiai. The camp participants and the organizers shared their impressions, memorized moments and discoveries, that had ruthlessly tamed the inner world, forced to see a different angle and get to know themselves again.
Vika Venediktova
“At the camp I met a diverse range of people. I contacted with them and realized that I knew not only them, but also myself. I thought about things that had never got to my head. The activities of the camp have encouraged the achievement of the goal, to find a common language, to develop a public language skills, to express their opinions and share their experiences. We had the same range of rules. One of them is Bora Bora. It was enough to say this combination of funny words with each of the most spoken campers and they were required to engage in a conversation telling what they were saying before you joined. The program was becoming more intense, I felt tired, but continued pushing forward. At the end of the camp I realised that I learned a lot. I feel that I am starting to live a more interesting life with a completely different standpoint. I am now travelling farther, with more confidence and a whole other expectation. “
Živilė Samulionytė
“Sadly, it all ended. The steering group of the camps was preparing for several months, and this has passed in a few moments. I don’t regret any day that was omitted here, no mistake and emotion. I contributed to the organization of the camp, and therefore began to improve my leadership skills, public speaking, communication, overall purpose, time planning, search of errors, and analysis of their findings. I found new friends who helped to realize that good things can be found everywhere. They laughed when they had fun and hard times. The most memorable moment was from night hiking. We were sitting beside the campfire, in the middle of the forest. It seemed to be surrounded by people I have known for hundred of years. I was watching the starry sky and I was happy that I am exactly here, not somewhere else. “
Aistė Lukoševičiūtė
“In the camp I’ve had the opportunity to test myself in a leading position and engage with activities on the other side. It was infinitely interesting to analyze the work and growth of the team, while at the same time learning about and even exposing the experience. Of course, I found new friends and interesting chatmates for the night talk, and I’d like to see more of the horizons, by communicating with utterly hostile people than myself. The night trip is the tradition of the camps in Rokiškis Youth Organization Union ‘ Round Table’. It was a time of training and I felt the responsibility for the whole team. “
Julija Stepanova
“At this camp I realized that we should be unafraid to improvise, to say “yes” more often and to show our true selves. We had an intense program, and I listed so much that I was asleep just for 24 hours. Nevertheless, I am very happy. The techniques were not visible and pleasant because of a very experienced training guide Audrius Laurutis. The night trip during which I went through an inner conflict, I didn’t give up, even though I returned at 7 a.m. kayaking, and remembering the camp of the last year, where we sailed at the same time. This was a worthwhile route. I will admit, I was very tired, it was difficult to have the energy for the follow-up, but this camp was a good lesson not only for the participants, but also for the organizers, both in terms of expectations and in the decisions made. “
Rimgailė Bulovaitė
“In contributing to the organization of the camp, I learned my strengths, I faced my personal fears and, together with other camp participants, tried to overcome the challenges. I am very grateful for this experience, because it is time when I can say that I‘ve tried to know myself as an individual, and most importantly, I have realized what I want to see in the future and I feel a great desire for improvement! “
Deimantė Kriukelytė
“I lived for several years hearing beautiful feedback about the Young Leaders Club. This year I tried to take part in the camp, to the left/to the right. It was different and filled my summer with a variety of colours. The sincere faces of the campers, the joyful laughter, deep conversations, the warm-up of the stapling, and the communication does not allow anyone to feel marginalized. Kayaking is also a great thing. Songs, cheerful jokes, the optimism of everyone, and good weather took away dark thoughts. Cool summer nights did not break us, and we drew our night-time trek to try our hand, stamina, orientation and got to know friends better. “
Žiedė Kirstukaitė
“I am very pleased with what happened during the camp. With me, we have survived the palette of various senses, from the charming moments, which posed a warm and bright emotion, to many tensions and responsibilities for the camp participants. It was good to watch them grow in small increments. Personally, for me, countless methods have allowed an increasingly deeper understanding of themselves, while moments even doubting. It is good to know that I can accumulate a massive amount of patience and endurance even for a fifth hour in the woods and searching for a road home. I’m very very happy. “

It‘s hard to say that the summer is counting it‘s last days. Leaving the place for rainy weather, long nights and leaves falling from the tree‘s. It‘s a shame but the warm season forgot how it should be. We had to deal with the arrogant summer, which often decided to make it cold, rainy, windy, and gloomy. This kind of weather helped all the members of the summercamp to come closer together. Young people put up applications for the -, that got financed by the Rokiškis district municipality from kids r young people socialization program. This summercamp was not only meant to have a good way to pass time, but during this summercamp people changed the way they think, people had new experiences, and gained a lot of benefits.
Summercamp – one big adventure
Uncertainty, going to the summercamp makes you worry. Because you don‘t know what awaits you, you don‘t know if you‘ll fit in, and you‘re unsure with what kind of people you will have to live for all the six days. Despite that, you fill a warm felling in your stomach, which we like to describe like butterflies. All the early fears soon start to disappear, when you come to the campsite, and meet all the people with which you‘re about to experience one big and incredible adventure.
The first day already, we felt a strong connection, because we had an opportunity to get to know eachother, find shared interests, hobbies, and talk about topics we have never discused with anyone else. The girls that organized the summercamp – Gabija Kaulakytė, Agnė Ruzgutė, Toma Barzdaitė and Ieva Marija Makšimatė, made sure that people who didn‘t know eachother would have enough courage to go and communicate. Getting to know eachother is very important. You have to recognize and trust the people around you. Ahead – is various activities, a lot of teamwork, so being around people is inevitable.
Open and honest chatting – the basis of it all
We often don‘t acknowledge that every little or big thing we do can mess up, from the looks of it, our pretty and tidy inner world. Analyzing our actions, remembering how we behaved during a certain time, overthinking, what was going on in our heads, and what kind of new relizations we got after that, we understand that even the simplest things can make a mess in our heads. In the summercamp “Nuo nulio“ we did a lot of things: we got to know eachother, we formed a team, made up our rules, we thought and talked about our expectations. We deepen our knowledge about entrepreneurship, young people opportunities. We were strengthening our critical thinking, independence, self-confidence, leadership abilities, patriotism, strategical thinking, sense of responsibility, and other competences. Through non-formal education methods, we analyzed ourselfes, we got new information about entrepreneurship, we created our own business ideas and represented them. We sailed the canoe and also went on a night hike in the forrest. We took part in a simulation, wrote letters for ourself in 20 years. We got to know what‘s the best things to say in a job interview.
I can confidentely say that we never ran out of one thing – warm, sensitive and honest conversations. They left a mark in our hearts. It was good to know that you could always take any person from the campsite and talk to them eye to eye.
Reflections helped too think deeply and appreciate
In order to strengthen our trust in each other, endeavour in unity, our club experimented in different practices. We partook in such activities as covering up one ‘s eyes whilst trying to assemble an object, lighting a match to burst a balloon. Another method of ours was lifting and rocking of a person. During the activity participants divided into 2 groups and lifted and rocked every member, causing them to loosen up. The most important element of this exercise is letting everyone to participate and for the subjects to completely trust the people rocking them. After such exercises we had a moment of reflection, during which members of the groups shared their thoughts on what could have been better. The deliberations showed us what we were perhaps doing wrong, what was troubling us, what hindered some of us from participating, why we did not always listen to each other and finally why did we neglect working as a team. As a consequence, we gradually matured, advanced, bonded with each other. In such ways, we developed towards being a team.
The cold didn‘t win us over
In the summercamp we understood that the cold weather can‘t win over a big and united group of people. It didn‘t stop us from swimming through the rivers, because we were warmed up by the few layers of warm clothes, each others support and beatiful songs. Cold didn‘t even bother our night hike, cause the stubbornness, good mood and dances in the middle of the forest were a lot stronger then a breezy wind and low temperature. I don‘t wanna hide that sometimes we had to go with shivers on our body, but the tiredness allowed us to forget all our fears and the cobwebs or the dark no longer made us scared.
But not always did we have to work in a team. We had an uneasy task – writting a letter for ourselfs in 20 years. Everyone had an hour to focus and concentrate on themselves, their needs and ambitiont, look into the biggest dreams, that we deeply hide even from ourselves, cause we think they are too utopian. There were tears, discoveries, sensitive experience sharing.
Summercamp that changes peoples lifes
In this kind of summercamp you grow up, get stronger physically and psychologically. Everyone can experiment, leave their comfort zone, try to take leadership, or opposite let others speak. It‘s good to see the up rising members that get to see that they can do a lot more than anyone else. Summercamp “Nuo nulio“ just pushed them to move forward.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image img_size=”” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”zoom”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”Project “Time Flash“” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]Ministry of Social Security and Labour has funded the Rokiškis Youth Organizations Union “Round Table” project “Time Flash”

For special occasions like this, every summer leaders organize hikes, camps or other projects. On June 20-25, „The Young Leader Club“ organized camp „Būk“.
The camp was held in Žiukeliškės. Within six days, the participants deepened their knowledge of health, the importance of active leisure and nature conservation, met new friends, and kayaked on the Šventoji River. „I am pleased that by organizing this camp we have encouraged young people to look more naturally at nature and its resources. During the camp we performed a lot of activities related to ecology and nature protection: we created various household appliances, produced nature-friendly equipment“, said one of the organizers of the camp Ieva Gaigalaitė.
One of the biggest adventures was the night hike. Where you can find a better place than a forest, a better time than a night and a better tool than a hike, to improve the orientation in an environment and cooperation skills, to get to know yourself better, to overcome your fears and to unite people into one big team?
„The activities of the Camp were based on non-formal education. I am very pleased that a number of “green” people who haven’t been seriously confronted with non-formal education participated in the camp. The Camp was a great first step. Each participant’s new understanding or discovery was very important for me and brought me no less happiness than my own experience”, said one of the organizers of the camp, Asta Jasiūnaitė.
“Camp gave me a lot. I got to know many interesting and wonderful people. People and the reflection of various activities helped me to look into everything deeper and more positively. My thinking has changed, I have received a huge dose of motivation. There was nothing missing in the camp: laughter, sincere conversation, reflection, rest, adventure. It was very sad to leave. I’ve never had so many positive emotions, I’m very happy. I want to thank you all.” Agnė Marcinkevičiūtė, shared her impressions.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image img_size=”” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”zoom”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”“Rokiškis Youth Organizations Union“ Round Table ”Improving Operational Efficiency and Quality Improvement“ co-financing” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]Funding received from Rokiškis district municipality.

„Half a chair“ – it’s a half of a life. We wanted to know life better, understand and discover it. During the project we accomplished our idea – to reveal its beauty with photography.
We took photos of kids and elders. In the faces of elders we saw their life experience, and in the smiles of children we saw their carelessness and the questions of future. In pictures we expressed their moods, we found out their thoughts and their imaginary future. From the elders we figured if they fulfilled their dreams, if they spent their youth purposefully. In photos and our released photo calendar we revealed children’s and elders’ wisdom.
From photos we formed an exposition and exhibited it in these towns, villages, where youth didn’t know much about photography. We wanted youth to understand and think about emotions expressed in the photos. We hope that both youth from cities and from country will be inspired to get interested in photography. We also created a movie about our work “Half a chair + me”.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image img_size=”” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”zoom”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”„Geltonų plytų kelias“” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]Finansavimas gautas iš .

During rehearsing and concerts together with band “Paradox” we noticed, that youth is excited about rock music, but in Rokiškis most of the time we can only hear loud party music, therefore rock is being left in the dust. After asking around, we found out, that in Rokiškis there were 12 bands that performed live music, so we decided to brush the dust off the music sheets and revive rock for its second life, because we’re tired of lip-synced pop. We gathered up, rewritten, renewed and applied music, that was played by our parents, to the masses.
Together with our partners we organized expeditions around Rokiškis region, during which we collected data (records, photos, text and similar) about the old bands. We selected, assessed and adapted it to our generations. We remade (with the help of old musicians) the old Rokiškis bands’ works. We recorded prepared songs in a studio. Before the festival we organized seminar “Vocal, improvisation and instrumentation”, in which everyone who is interested in music and wants to improve could participate.
A lot of music teachers and other people who are interested in music gathered to the seminar. Lecturers (Klaipėda university lecturer, band “Studija” vocalist Stepas Januška and Klaipėda university jazz cathedral lecturer Saulius Šiaučiulis and his student – drummer Mykolas) gave us lots of valuable knowledge and left seminar participants some methodical information, which they could apply practically.
On the event of Father’s day we organized youth bands rock festival “Father’s guitar”, in which participated youth from whole Lithuania. Festival concert was hosted by band’s “Bix” vocalist Saulius Urbonavičius. Later we released festival concert DVD. During the summer we worked on CD-e book, in which we put together all our collected data. On September 1st we introduced our released book and festival’s “Father’s guitar” DVD, and on September 2nd – our band’s debut album.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][vc_tta_accordion active_section=”1″ collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”2018″ tab_id=”1575047144601-92ec7af0-e71d”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”7178″ img_size=”” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”zoom” label=””][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”Project “Trashsitis”” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]
The project received € 6,888.
As Christmas approached, we were delighted that the European Solidarity Corps program, launched a year ago, had fully funded the Trashsitis (garbage city) project presented by the Round Table of the Rokiškis Union of Youth Organizations at its first call for projects (16 October 2018). The hard work and time spent by the team of young people in developing this idea paid off with € 6888 funding. So we look forward to the next 2019. The project will continue throughout the year and there will be many activities! Summer camp, training, zero waste dinner, garbage collection contest and many more await us. We do all of this to make people, and especially young people, aware of one of the most pressing issues of our time – waste of natural resources. Sometimes we don’t even think about how much a packet of chips, a shoulder drop, or a plastic bottle bought and casually pressed in the park beneath the bench can make a difference … Really, a lot! Therefore, during the project we will raise people’s awareness of 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle), and contributing to land conservation. The land is our home, which, unfortunately, we care too little about. We will build a “mini Rokiškis” to help people understand the scale of the problem and the garbage collected during the project. If we do not change anything, this is the city that awaits us in the future. The whole project team is looking forward to starting Trashsitis and is ready to go! We will be waiting for you in the activities organized by the project because – from where we will start changing the world, if not from ourselves!

Money allocated for the project – 500 euros.
The camp aimed to develop youth citizenship, involvement in public organizations and emphasized the importance of volunteering. On the occasion of the centenary of the independence of Lithuania, 24 young people covered 100 kilometers by various means of travel: hiking, kayaking, cycling. The participants developed critical thinking, leadership, teamwork, decision-making and public speaking skills through informal methods.
The camp participants shared their impressions and memorable moments
“It’s fun to see young people who are determined to organize a camp,” said Ignas Dainys, a participant of the camp, who was impressed by canoeing and night hiking. “The night hike showed what people really are like – I watched them behave in certain situations, the impact of a variety of tasks,” he said.
Erika Leitonaitė remembered her heartfelt communication: “I was able to reach anyone and find common threads in the conversation.” Besides, she learned to not give up halfway into the challenge, to express her opinion.
Gabija Miškeliūnaitė overcame her fears and decided to register for the camp. The girl is delighted because the memories remain indelible. “During the night hike, I learned a lot of useful things that didn’t seem to matter. For example, to better navigate an existing area you need to lift your eyes to the sky! ”She shared her impressions.
“After seeing the initiative group interact with each other, I decided to let them deal with one week of my life in camp. Physical endurance, self-analysis and teamwork, I thought, were the best I could give myself.
A week of physical and emotional endurance tests, laughter, dancing, “tarzankės”, delicious-tasting noodles, sleeping in a tent, sleeping faces and nighttime bathing in the lake showed that happiness can be found in the simplest of things: human relationships, nature, leg pain and emotional fractures.
I am extremely grateful to have such wonderful friends who take the initiative and create things that will change people and their lives forever. ”- Greta Minkevičiūtė shared her memories.
Members of the camp steering group shared their impressions
“When I was asked if I wanted to organize a camp, I immediately agreed. I knew it would take a lot of responsibility and time, but I couldn’t refuse. I am only fifteen and I had the opportunity to organize a camp – I am extremely happy, ”said Rokas Kaulakis.
“The camp was a summer event that I won’t forget for a long time. Already in February we started organizing the camp. I spent my free time writing the project, brainstorming, finding methods, communicating with partners and other organizational work. The result surprised me: the participants were happy. Together with the initiative group, we didn’t forget that 2018 is the centenary of Lithuania, so we wanted to mention it. Our goal was to travel 100 km in different ways – we achieved it within 7 days. The biggest and most indelible impression during the camp was the communication between the participants. Thanks to the busy program and team building methods all the participants got together very quickly and I did not notice a single one who didn’t adapt. It was a huge adventure of my summer, for which I first have to thank myself. ”- Ernestas Jasiūnas shared his experience of organizing the camp.
“Becoming an organizer, not a participant, was a completely spontaneous idea. I offered myself without thinking – I wanted to try something new. As I was writing the project, I began to realize the responsibility of organizing a camp. Now I can safely say that I do not regret it at all because I have worked with an amazing team and gained a lot of useful experience. Impressed by the changes in thinking, behavior and openness of some participants during the camp. I think I found a lot of new and interesting people after this camp that I could safely call close friends, ”said Ąžuolas Rudnickas.
“Organizing a camp is not a new experience for me, but every time I find something to take from it. I can safely say that being a part of an organizational group is much more enjoyable to me than just being a participant. A sense of responsibility for each participant pushes you out of your comfort zone, becoming someone who makes important decisions not only for yourself, but for the remaining 23 participants. It allows you to grow, learn from mistakes or make very good decisions. Traveling camp was a challenge both physically and emotionally. I never thought that walking more than 20 km a day affects the emotions you become addicted to. Once again, I realized the importance of the team you work with. It was good to see us all becoming much more united and determined to fight for each other. What struck me most was the advanced attitude and discovery of some of the participants. I think the purpose of the camp was accomplished with a lot, ”said Aistė Lukoševičiūtė.

Everything that happened in the last week kept us busy, encouraged to climb out of our comfort zone and forget about various fears. We ran into a completely different environment where technology and social networks did not stick to the heels. We have gained new experience, skills, that have long been trapped in the desire to get out in the daylight. We felt inner freedom, refreshment, recessions and sudden ups and downs. Numerous things provoked to surrender, but we only got stronger, we grew up with “thicker skin” and step by step toward a team that was not just a group meeting for a good time. During the camp “Atjunk” we experienced a lot. Even the smallest detail itself contributed to the final result.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image img_size=”” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”zoom”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”Rokiškis Youth Organizations Union ‚The Round Table‘ summer camp „To the left/ To the right“” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]
Camp “To the left/to the right” gave a missing piece of the puzzle, which allowed to see a little more than in the beginning of the camp. From 16 to 20 of August there were many beautiful and unforgettable things in the countryside of Žiūkiai. The camp participants and the organizers shared their impressions, memorized moments and discoveries, that had ruthlessly tamed the inner world, forced to see a different angle and get to know themselves again.
Vika Venediktova
“At the camp I met a diverse range of people. I contacted with them and realized that I knew not only them, but also myself. I thought about things that had never got to my head. The activities of the camp have encouraged the achievement of the goal, to find a common language, to develop a public language skills, to express their opinions and share their experiences. We had the same range of rules. One of them is Bora Bora. It was enough to say this combination of funny words with each of the most spoken campers and they were required to engage in a conversation telling what they were saying before you joined. The program was becoming more intense, I felt tired, but continued pushing forward. At the end of the camp I realised that I learned a lot. I feel that I am starting to live a more interesting life with a completely different standpoint. I am now travelling farther, with more confidence and a whole other expectation. “
Živilė Samulionytė
“Sadly, it all ended. The steering group of the camps was preparing for several months, and this has passed in a few moments. I don’t regret any day that was omitted here, no mistake and emotion. I contributed to the organization of the camp, and therefore began to improve my leadership skills, public speaking, communication, overall purpose, time planning, search of errors, and analysis of their findings. I found new friends who helped to realize that good things can be found everywhere. They laughed when they had fun and hard times. The most memorable moment was from night hiking. We were sitting beside the campfire, in the middle of the forest. It seemed to be surrounded by people I have known for hundred of years. I was watching the starry sky and I was happy that I am exactly here, not somewhere else. “
Aistė Lukoševičiūtė
“In the camp I’ve had the opportunity to test myself in a leading position and engage with activities on the other side. It was infinitely interesting to analyze the work and growth of the team, while at the same time learning about and even exposing the experience. Of course, I found new friends and interesting chatmates for the night talk, and I’d like to see more of the horizons, by communicating with utterly hostile people than myself. The night trip is the tradition of the camps in Rokiškis Youth Organization Union ‘ Round Table’. It was a time of training and I felt the responsibility for the whole team. “
Julija Stepanova
“At this camp I realized that we should be unafraid to improvise, to say “yes” more often and to show our true selves. We had an intense program, and I listed so much that I was asleep just for 24 hours. Nevertheless, I am very happy. The techniques were not visible and pleasant because of a very experienced training guide Audrius Laurutis. The night trip during which I went through an inner conflict, I didn’t give up, even though I returned at 7 a.m. kayaking, and remembering the camp of the last year, where we sailed at the same time. This was a worthwhile route. I will admit, I was very tired, it was difficult to have the energy for the follow-up, but this camp was a good lesson not only for the participants, but also for the organizers, both in terms of expectations and in the decisions made. “
Rimgailė Bulovaitė
“In contributing to the organization of the camp, I learned my strengths, I faced my personal fears and, together with other camp participants, tried to overcome the challenges. I am very grateful for this experience, because it is time when I can say that I‘ve tried to know myself as an individual, and most importantly, I have realized what I want to see in the future and I feel a great desire for improvement! “
Deimantė Kriukelytė
“I lived for several years hearing beautiful feedback about the Young Leaders Club. This year I tried to take part in the camp, to the left/to the right. It was different and filled my summer with a variety of colours. The sincere faces of the campers, the joyful laughter, deep conversations, the warm-up of the stapling, and the communication does not allow anyone to feel marginalized. Kayaking is also a great thing. Songs, cheerful jokes, the optimism of everyone, and good weather took away dark thoughts. Cool summer nights did not break us, and we drew our night-time trek to try our hand, stamina, orientation and got to know friends better. “
Žiedė Kirstukaitė
“I am very pleased with what happened during the camp. With me, we have survived the palette of various senses, from the charming moments, which posed a warm and bright emotion, to many tensions and responsibilities for the camp participants. It was good to watch them grow in small increments. Personally, for me, countless methods have allowed an increasingly deeper understanding of themselves, while moments even doubting. It is good to know that I can accumulate a massive amount of patience and endurance even for a fifth hour in the woods and searching for a road home. I’m very very happy. “

It‘s hard to say that the summer is counting it‘s last days. Leaving the place for rainy weather, long nights and leaves falling from the tree‘s. It‘s a shame but the warm season forgot how it should be. We had to deal with the arrogant summer, which often decided to make it cold, rainy, windy, and gloomy. This kind of weather helped all the members of the summercamp to come closer together. Young people put up applications for the -, that got financed by the Rokiškis district municipality from kids r young people socialization program. This summercamp was not only meant to have a good way to pass time, but during this summercamp people changed the way they think, people had new experiences, and gained a lot of benefits.
Summercamp – one big adventure
Uncertainty, going to the summercamp makes you worry. Because you don‘t know what awaits you, you don‘t know if you‘ll fit in, and you‘re unsure with what kind of people you will have to live for all the six days. Despite that, you fill a warm felling in your stomach, which we like to describe like butterflies. All the early fears soon start to disappear, when you come to the campsite, and meet all the people with which you‘re about to experience one big and incredible adventure.
The first day already, we felt a strong connection, because we had an opportunity to get to know eachother, find shared interests, hobbies, and talk about topics we have never discused with anyone else. The girls that organized the summercamp – Gabija Kaulakytė, Agnė Ruzgutė, Toma Barzdaitė and Ieva Marija Makšimatė, made sure that people who didn‘t know eachother would have enough courage to go and communicate. Getting to know eachother is very important. You have to recognize and trust the people around you. Ahead – is various activities, a lot of teamwork, so being around people is inevitable.
Open and honest chatting – the basis of it all
We often don‘t acknowledge that every little or big thing we do can mess up, from the looks of it, our pretty and tidy inner world. Analyzing our actions, remembering how we behaved during a certain time, overthinking, what was going on in our heads, and what kind of new relizations we got after that, we understand that even the simplest things can make a mess in our heads. In the summercamp “Nuo nulio“ we did a lot of things: we got to know eachother, we formed a team, made up our rules, we thought and talked about our expectations. We deepen our knowledge about entrepreneurship, young people opportunities. We were strengthening our critical thinking, independence, self-confidence, leadership abilities, patriotism, strategical thinking, sense of responsibility, and other competences. Through non-formal education methods, we analyzed ourselfes, we got new information about entrepreneurship, we created our own business ideas and represented them. We sailed the canoe and also went on a night hike in the forrest. We took part in a simulation, wrote letters for ourself in 20 years. We got to know what‘s the best things to say in a job interview.
I can confidentely say that we never ran out of one thing – warm, sensitive and honest conversations. They left a mark in our hearts. It was good to know that you could always take any person from the campsite and talk to them eye to eye.
Reflections helped too think deeply and appreciate
In order to strengthen our trust in each other, endeavour in unity, our club experimented in different practices. We partook in such activities as covering up one ‘s eyes whilst trying to assemble an object, lighting a match to burst a balloon. Another method of ours was lifting and rocking of a person. During the activity participants divided into 2 groups and lifted and rocked every member, causing them to loosen up. The most important element of this exercise is letting everyone to participate and for the subjects to completely trust the people rocking them. After such exercises we had a moment of reflection, during which members of the groups shared their thoughts on what could have been better. The deliberations showed us what we were perhaps doing wrong, what was troubling us, what hindered some of us from participating, why we did not always listen to each other and finally why did we neglect working as a team. As a consequence, we gradually matured, advanced, bonded with each other. In such ways, we developed towards being a team.
The cold didn‘t win us over
In the summercamp we understood that the cold weather can‘t win over a big and united group of people. It didn‘t stop us from swimming through the rivers, because we were warmed up by the few layers of warm clothes, each others support and beatiful songs. Cold didn‘t even bother our night hike, cause the stubbornness, good mood and dances in the middle of the forest were a lot stronger then a breezy wind and low temperature. I don‘t wanna hide that sometimes we had to go with shivers on our body, but the tiredness allowed us to forget all our fears and the cobwebs or the dark no longer made us scared.
But not always did we have to work in a team. We had an uneasy task – writting a letter for ourselfs in 20 years. Everyone had an hour to focus and concentrate on themselves, their needs and ambitiont, look into the biggest dreams, that we deeply hide even from ourselves, cause we think they are too utopian. There were tears, discoveries, sensitive experience sharing.
Summercamp that changes peoples lifes
In this kind of summercamp you grow up, get stronger physically and psychologically. Everyone can experiment, leave their comfort zone, try to take leadership, or opposite let others speak. It‘s good to see the up rising members that get to see that they can do a lot more than anyone else. Summercamp “Nuo nulio“ just pushed them to move forward.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image img_size=”” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”zoom”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”Project “Time Flash“” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]Ministry of Social Security and Labour has funded the Rokiškis Youth Organizations Union “Round Table” project “Time Flash”

For special occasions like this, every summer leaders organize hikes, camps or other projects. On June 20-25, „The Young Leader Club“ organized camp „Būk“.
The camp was held in Žiukeliškės. Within six days, the participants deepened their knowledge of health, the importance of active leisure and nature conservation, met new friends, and kayaked on the Šventoji River. „I am pleased that by organizing this camp we have encouraged young people to look more naturally at nature and its resources. During the camp we performed a lot of activities related to ecology and nature protection: we created various household appliances, produced nature-friendly equipment“, said one of the organizers of the camp Ieva Gaigalaitė.
One of the biggest adventures was the night hike. Where you can find a better place than a forest, a better time than a night and a better tool than a hike, to improve the orientation in an environment and cooperation skills, to get to know yourself better, to overcome your fears and to unite people into one big team?
„The activities of the Camp were based on non-formal education. I am very pleased that a number of “green” people who haven’t been seriously confronted with non-formal education participated in the camp. The Camp was a great first step. Each participant’s new understanding or discovery was very important for me and brought me no less happiness than my own experience”, said one of the organizers of the camp, Asta Jasiūnaitė.
“Camp gave me a lot. I got to know many interesting and wonderful people. People and the reflection of various activities helped me to look into everything deeper and more positively. My thinking has changed, I have received a huge dose of motivation. There was nothing missing in the camp: laughter, sincere conversation, reflection, rest, adventure. It was very sad to leave. I’ve never had so many positive emotions, I’m very happy. I want to thank you all.” Agnė Marcinkevičiūtė, shared her impressions.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image img_size=”” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”zoom”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”“Rokiškis Youth Organizations Union“ Round Table ”Improving Operational Efficiency and Quality Improvement“ co-financing” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]Funding received from Rokiškis district municipality.

„Half a chair“ – it’s a half of a life. We wanted to know life better, understand and discover it. During the project we accomplished our idea – to reveal its beauty with photography.
We took photos of kids and elders. In the faces of elders we saw their life experience, and in the smiles of children we saw their carelessness and the questions of future. In pictures we expressed their moods, we found out their thoughts and their imaginary future. From the elders we figured if they fulfilled their dreams, if they spent their youth purposefully. In photos and our released photo calendar we revealed children’s and elders’ wisdom.
From photos we formed an exposition and exhibited it in these towns, villages, where youth didn’t know much about photography. We wanted youth to understand and think about emotions expressed in the photos. We hope that both youth from cities and from country will be inspired to get interested in photography.

Idea of the project – to create a collaboration network that would unite youth organizations, district establishments witch work with children and youth. 6 youth organizations participated in the project. During the project was created a Rokiškis youth website with easy to use database which is used to collect and constantly refresh information about organizations’ work, activities, entertainment for youth, contacts.
Result:
- Project promoted youth self-expression, participation in social activities, gave the opportunity for young people to express themselves during seminars and to practically use their gained knowledge in their lives.
- During seminar youth learned to communicate with their seniors, legal peoples. We used that knowledge by interacting with informal education institutions and organizations leaders, aiming to establish better relations with collaboration network institutions’ representatives.
- Cooperating with other organizations and their leaders we established a collaboration network, which helps organizations to communicate, share information, organize joint projects and so on.
- The website for youth was created – infobaseinas.lt
Website gave an opportunity for participants to keep sharing information, experience. It also helped to coordinate mutual activities for youth busyness.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”2006″ tab_id=”1575047144706-3c606915-433b”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image img_size=”” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”zoom”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”„Father‘s guitar“” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]Funded by EU programme “Active youth”. 20716,90 Lt(6000 €).
During rehearsing and concerts together with band “Paradox” we noticed, that youth is excited about rock music, but in Rokiškis most of the time we can only hear loud party music, therefore rock is being left in the dust. After asking around, we found out, that in Rokiškis there were 12 bands that performed live music, so we decided to brush the dust off the music sheets and revive rock for its second life, because we’re tired of lip-synced pop. We gathered up, rewritten, renewed and applied music, that was played by our parents, to the masses.
Together with our partners we organized expeditions around Rokiškis region, during which we collected data (records, photos, text and similar) about the old bands. We selected, assessed and adapted it to our generations. We remade (with the help of old musicians) the old Rokiškis bands’ works. We recorded prepared songs in a studio. Before the festival we organized seminar “Vocal, improvisation and instrumentation”, in which everyone who is interested in music and wants to improve could participate.
A lot of music teachers and other people who are interested in music gathered to the seminar. Lecturers (Klaipėda university lecturer, band “Studija” vocalist Stepas Januška and Klaipėda university jazz cathedral lecturer Saulius Šiaučiulis and his student – drummer Mykolas) gave us lots of valuable knowledge and left seminar participants some methodical information, which they could apply practically.
On the event of Father’s day we organized youth bands rock festival “Father’s guitar”, in which participated youth from whole Lithuania. Festival concert was hosted by band’s “Bix” vocalist Saulius Urbonavičius. Later we released festival concert DVD. During the summer we worked on CD-e book, in which we put together all our collected data. On September 1st we introduced our released book and festival’s “Father’s guitar” DVD, and on September 2nd – our band’s debut album.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][vc_empty_space height=”96px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][porto_content_box skin=”dark” bg_type=”featured-boxes-custom” box_style=”featured-boxes-style-3″ box_effect=”featured-box-effect-3″ show_icon=”yes” icon=”fa fa-book”][vc_column_text]
