Camper Testimonials

Reactions to Leadership

It is an amazing experience filled with opportunities to learn more about yourself and others around you, truly a real life cliché. When I say camp was a 10/10 it is only because there was no option for 11. 


Camp was one of the best experiences of my high school career so far! It felt like by the end of the week, our colour group was supporting and encouraging each other genuinely and the counsellors were so kind and really made the effort to connect with each and every one of us. If you’re looking for a sign to attend leadership camp, this is it! 


Camp was an amazing experience for myself and my many new friends. I would love to come back next year.


I loved camp and it was a great experience! Everyone in my group was amazing and I loved all the activities.  I would definitely go back as a leader! 


Camp is the best place to be if you want to be encouraged to step out of your comfort zone and be supported the whole way through! At camp I always felt heard and loved by anyone I talked to. I felt like siblings to my colour group as well as the other colours in friendly competitions! The Manitou staff, teachers, BLTs, ALs, JCs and counsellors made everyone feel welcomed and meant to be there. Camp is not something to miss out on!  


Camp was probably my favourite highschool experience yet, I had an amazing time meeting new people and getting close with everyone.
