APPLICATION FOR YEAR 1 OF CFP SUMMER 2021
Part 1

Deadline:  30 March, 2021
 
Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic and the current health and safety requirements, we are not yet certain we will be able to hold our traditional week long, in person camp in Troodos. At the present time we are planning to run another virtual program, however we will be prepared to convert to an in person camp should conditions allow us to do so. We remain hopeful that we can hold our traditional program.  We do not know when we will be able to make an in person camp determination but we will notify all applicants of program decisions as soon as it is possible.
