Parents Feedback of Summer 2022

Dear Parents    Pugmarks has been organizing Summer Camps for young people since 1999. Over the years we have grown by focusing on the feedback received from the campers and their parents and making necessary changes in our programs.    Initially we collected the feedback by means of printed paper forms. At the end of each season, our Pune and Mumbai offices used to have stacks of the filled up forms.

Poem from the Mountains

Manali A journey once again goes well, Listen carefully, what I’m going to tell, Everyone filled with high exuberance spell, The journey has ended with sweet memories as a caramel.

God Of Small Things – Tadoba

‘Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the woods before sunrise’ I had read this somewhere, but could only fathom it when I got the opportunity to spend a whole night in the forests of  Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve. Sitting on the machan, squeezed between my companions, I readied myself for the unexpected! Our […]
