Visitors Day

Saturday, July 20, 2024, 11:00am to 3:00pm

Visitor’s Day is a time for parents to meet the counsellors, see our facility and watch as campers participate in various shows and activities. Alternative days can be considered as family circumstances require if arranged in advance, so long as these visits comply to our modified routine for this summer.

Arrival and Departure

Assume a 2-2.5 hour drive from Toronto. Please be on time…as your child/ren will be waiting until our gates open at 11:00 am… Upon arrival, please wait by the front dates and enjoy a coffee and a light snack.  Campers will wait for their parents at their cabins; we will guide you in the right direction. Click here for a map to camp!

A 15 minute ‘warning’ bell will be rung before Visitor’s Day ends. We kindly ask that you depart promptly at 3:00; a prolonged exit can be difficult for many children. We’re there to provide support once you’ve gone, and their ‘recovery’ is remarkably fast!!

Things to Do at Camp Throughout Your Day

Take advantage of our beautiful facility, bring your own picnic lunch or enjoy our buffet lunch in the dining hall.

Meet Your Child’s Counsellors:

They will be available throughout the day, staying by their cabins from 10:30-12:15, and from 1:30-2:45

Meet and Greet with Jack, Sue and Zack

We’ll be around talking with parents and to make it easier to find us, we’ll be anchored in the office from 11:30-12:15, and again from 2:00-2:45.

Camp Clothing and SESSION EXTENSIONS for campers wanting MORE CAMP!!

For those who did not purchase camp clothing before the summer, many items will be available throughout the day at the camp office. Session EXTENSIONS for campers who want to stay longer MUST be made at the office !

Activities

Campers can sign up to ‘wow’ parents with their skills at many activities including Gymnastics, Ropes, Skiing, Canoe/Kayak and Mountain Biking in the morning (11:30 – 12:30) and afternoon (1:00 pm – 2:30 pm). This is a great opportunity for campers to show parents what they have accomplished at camp. Sorry – but we can’t accommodate visitor’s use of the facilities (except tennis, basketball). Arts and Crafts is open all day (except 12:15-1:00) and activities will be available for young children accompanying you.

A supervised swim period (11-2:45 pm) is available for young children accompanying you if they want to try, providing all swimmers wear lifejackets!

Lunch and Sweet Table

You can have your own picnic lunch anywhere on our grounds or join us for lunch at 12:30, with cold drinks and very yummy snacks available in the Rec Hall from 1:00 to 2:00 pm, while watching our SLIDE SHOW of the photos from the summer.

We ask that you refrain from giving cash gifts to our staff.
We also ask that do not bring ANY pets to camp Due to health regulations, they are not allowed!

Food Goodies

Yes, bring as campers have a cabin party on Visitor’s Day night! Left overs collected the next day and where possible, are donated to a food bank. POP OR BOTTLED WATER will be confiscated, and MOST IMPORTANTLY….NO NUT products.
