PROGRAM OUTCOMES
The STEAM Project is seeking CITs (campers who have just completed grade 9) to act as leaders and motivators at camp! CITs will be learning from our trained staff and experiencing the challenges of participating in staff responsibilities while at the same time enjoying the fun of being a camper.
All CITs will receive a Certificate of Completion, professional references, and a Director’s review! Join our CIT program to become a part of a select team of young and
aspiring leaders.

Start the day with a camp-wide meeting and welcome message from our counsellors. Campers will then be dismissed into their groups
9:30 AM – 10:30 AM
Learn a new concept and review the ones from the day before. It’s always a good idea to refresh our memory!
10:30 AM – 11:00 AM
Time to recharge with a snack and some physical activity. We spend our break time playing games outdoors with friends and counsellors
11:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Now that we have all that extra energy out of our system, it’s time to start our second activity where we will be learning and improving our skills with various tools and technologies
12:00 PM – 12:45 PM
Lunch is served! Satisfy your appetite with our delicious meal plans (or bring your own!) while taking part in some exciting team challenges.
12:45 PM – 1:20 PM
Let’s keep the fun going with some cabin-based games, crafts, and physical activity! This is the time to play with friends and participate in activities that interest you–arts, sports, games–you name it!
1:20 PM – 2:15 PM
Once we’ve got our creative juices flowing, it’s time to start our design project where we will be combining everything we’ve learned during the day
2:15 PM – 2:55 PM
Ready to show everyone your spectacular project? Be fearless and present your projects or compete in design challenges
2:55 PM – 4:00 PM
See what cool activities are here for you during the Open Activity period. We offer 3D printing, woodshop, and robotics to name a few! Senior campers may work on their Enrichment Project.
Planning meals can be tiring, but it doesn’t have to be. We’ve partnered up with Kid’s Kitchen to make lunchtime easy. Just choose a meal plan option after you register for camp and we’ll take care of the rest for you. We have regular, vegetarian, and halal meal plan options available!
Do you have a busy schedule? Start and/or end your camper’s day with fun and friendly staff in our before- and after-care programs. Campers will choose from a variety of activities and games to play. Before-care is available from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and after-care is available from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Our specialized enrichment programs are for campers who want to take their skills further. These programs are limited to a small number of our Junior and Senior Unit campers (finishing Grades 5 to 8). During the Open Activity period at camp, like-minded campers will complete more sophisticated projects or challenges that will last throughout each session.
