Day Camp Descriptions, Costs and Dates

IMPORTANT : Please note that your child will need to reach the age in the group they are enrolling in by September 30, 2025.

Example: My child will be 7 years old on August 3rd, so I will have to register him in the 7-8 camps.

Do you think the camp offerings have changed this year? 

You are right! In 2024 we have opted for versatility and discovery by focusing on our base camps. 

  • All children will be in regular camp during Pre-Camp week (June 25 to 27), as this is a training week for our counselors, and your registered children will have the chance to forge and implement good practices among our counselors.
  • Week 8 (August 18 to 20) will be a week of outings.
  • This explains why the number of places per age group offered is limited for these two weeks.

Camps are reserved for children of serving military personnel, Shannon residents and DND/NPF employees
