        together  with  the  Ministry  of  Education  with  the
        financial   support   by    Serendib    English   Camp
        Foundation,  a  Sri  Lanka  based  organization  created
        for  English  education  development  in  the  country  with

        the  kind  patronage  of  Mr.  Tucker  McCravy  Jr.  The
        first-ever  Sri  Lankan  planned  and  executed  camp  was
        held  at  Sabaragamuwa  University  of  Sri  Lanka  in
