Campers are housed in dormitory style cabins that can accommodate around 8 people. Counsellors stay in an adjoining room to see to the welfare and safety of our campers at all times.
A registered Nurse and her team are on site 24 hours a day to administer medication and support campers who require particular care.
Our Summer Camp program offers a wide range of aquatic, sports, and artistic activities designed to promote our campers' self-esteem and autonomy.
