Is your child ready for camp?

To support your child's enjoyment and safety at camp, as well as the enjoyment and safety of the other campers, it is important to ensure your child is "camp ready." To help determine this, we have put together a checklist as guidance.

• Participants are able to take instruction and direction from staff

• Participants are comfortable and able to interact in a group environment

• Participant are able and willing to actively participate in the program and all of its activities

• For programs with specialty skill requirements, participants must be able to demonstrate the basic skill

• School-aged participants are able to attend school successfully

• Participants are able to participate in a manner that is safe for themselves and others

• Participants are able to use the washroom on their own

Please remember that campers must be 5 years of age by the end of the calendar year to register for summer camps.

Participants who are attending a program and not demonstrating that they are ‘camp ready’ may be withdrawn from the camp at the sole discretion of the Supervisor of Recreation Programming.

Rules and expectations

Our goal is to keep every child safe and to ensure that they have an enjoyable camp experience. While at camp, it is expected that campers will act in an appropriate manner at all times. To aid in this positive behaviour we have outlined four camp rules that must be followed.

3. Do not touch things that do not belong to you 
4. Stay in the activity area at all times, leaders must be notified if you are leaving and are to accompany you
