Q: When is drop off time for camp?

A: Campers need to be dropped off at camp on Sunday between 1pm and 2 pm.  It takes about 20 minutes to finish the registration process (you will need to provide the child's medicare card). You can help bring your child's belongings to their cabin where you will meet their counsellor.  Please let us know if you will  be late.

Q: What time do I pick up my child at the end of the week?

A: Please arrive Saturday at 11am  for pick up. Our last camp activity of the week is a very special closing circle so if you arrive early, we kindly ask that you wait by the parking lot until we are done.  You must sign out your child with the Registrar and get the child's medicare card back from the Health Officer before leaving. 

Q : Can I send mail to my child while they are at camp?

A: You sure can! Many parents choose to write a letter (or a few) in advance and leave it with staff during registration. We will make sure your child gets their mail during the week. If you would like to mail a letter, we recommend mailing it before camp begin to ensure it arrives during the camp week. Address it to:

Q: My child would like to be in the same cabin with a friend. Can I request that they be together?

A: Sure. As long as the children are the same gender and age group, we can do our best to make sure they are together in the same cabin.

Q: What types of activities do campers do at camp?

A: It can change every year but we often include sports, crafts, fishing, archery, nature activities (such as light hiking, fire building or building sacred sculptures with nature) and music. Every day, campers get a 2 hour period for waterfront fun which can include swimming, playing on the sandy shore or canoeing.  We have a fun Regatta day on Wednesday where we play special games as a whole camp that include water games, slip and slide and a big BBQ afterwards.

Q: Where do the campers sleep?

A: Each camper will be assigned a cabin with one or two counsellors.  There are typically 4-7 campers per cabin. The campers and counsellors sleep in single beds or bunkbeds.  Senior campers sleep in tents in a separate area about a 5 minute walk from main camp.
