Programs

Camp Y offers a wide variety of programming for all ages and experiences.

Our camp counsellors plan out activities every week to ensure a fresh and exciting schedule for campers. Campers will get a chance to try their skills and determination on our climbing wall and ropes courses, they’ll need to work together and develop their teamwork skills to overcome a wide variety of initiative tasks. Sports, camp fires, crafts, reading, kite flying, mini golf, biking and many other outdoor activities will ensure a good night’s sleep, and of course campers can’t get enough of our pool and waterslides.

Most of the day campers will stay in cabin groups while completing and moving between activities but every night something special is planned for the entire camp.
