The world’s largest LEED platinum certified chain, ITC Hotels along with Welcomhotel announced a special surprise for kids this summer, the ‘Ollie’s Summer Camp’. Kids are currently spending their days at home attending virtual classes for most part of their day with no respite. Dedicated to the young adults of our world, Ollie’s Summer Camp is a club for kids which has been designed with interactive activities and learnings for the budding minds. Ollie’s Club at ITC Hotels and Ollie’s Corner at Welcomhotel respectively, are named after the Oliver Ridley turtle, one of ocean’s abundant tiny treasures, that are found visiting Morjim, Galgibag and Agonda Beach in Goa along with Gahirmata Beach in Odisha in the months of January and February.

In keeping with ITC Hotels ethos of supporting planet positive experiences, the Ollie’s Club is a tribute to the strength and resilience of this wonderful species. The Ollie’s Summer Camp is dedicated to the spirit of fun, discovery and inclusivity.

Ollie’s Summer Camp brings structured activities for our young guests that are aimed at sparking their inherent curiosity. Through a kaleidoscope of varied topics and easy to follow instructions, we aim to satiate their inquisitive minds with responsible experiences that enrich their lives. These sessions unwrap a bundle of experiences and exciting activities for kids to practice and parents to gainfully engage in. The wide array of activities ranges from interactive yoga classes and no heat cooking to painting and home gardening tips from our in-house subject experts.

Beginning today, August 19, 2020, the virtual camp will dive into one engaging week of interactive activities for the budding minds of our world which will help them develop skills and hobbies such as painting, cooking, gardening among others. Each of the day’s activities will feature two interesting topics which can be viewed through short videos on ITC Hotels’ and Welcomhotels’ social media handles. These will enable kids to learn new skills that they can practice and enjoy with their families from the safety of their homes.

The Ollie’s Club is already a favourite with kids. ITC Grand Goa, ITC Grand Bharat (Gurgaon), ITC Rajputana (Jaipur) and ITC Mughal (Agra) are some of the popular destinations that draw the Ollie fans. Parents are assured of the safety and hygiene of their children through the ‘WeAssure’ programme designed in collaboration with medical professionals and disinfection experts brings enhanced levels of hygiene & safety. The initiative reassures our guests of visibly stringent cleanliness and disinfection processes offering unparalleled comfort with peace of mind. With this promise, Ollie’s Club and Ollie’s Corner at these hotels will soon reopen its doors to kids. Meanwhile, the Ollie’s Virtual Summer Camp looks forward to meeting its young friends soon.

The interesting activities can be viewed on the social media handles of ITC Hotels and Welcomhotels. There is no pre-registration required to participate in the Ollie’s Virtual Summer Camp.
