About the local hosting organization
TENKIMURA is established in 1987 by one local junior high school teacher to improve the situation that local children were in , and to help their healthier growth.
This organization has many programs ( Child day care 3-5 years old, After school program for disable youth and some community works) and organizes events related to nature activities for children, aiming to create a better local community for children and offer supports to parents. The slogan is “The earth is a playground!”
Lots of local people are involved in the events as supporters. TENKI-MURA provides children with chances to explore the nature, and hopefully, the event will stay in their minds as a precious memory forthe rest of their life.
