Team TACT

As promised,

Team TACT had at last updated their blog on our program.

for those who didn't get to go, you could get the insights of it there.

Publicity would like to apologize because we would have to wait for the pictures from Team TACT since being a camp participants don't really allow us to really take that much picture.

we would also like to ask a favor to those who brings their camera during the camp to share their pics with us. just approach us to do so. :)
