Join us for some fun forest adventures this summer!
We are so excited to be offering a wide variety of camps to the Brant Community this summer and are eager to share all that we have planned. Our facilities provide the optimal space for outdoor exploration. Campers build confidence, develop resilience and create lasting friendships all within the beautiful setting of the Ebb and Flow forest. The land provides the perfect environment for open-ended imaginative play and discovery with authentic Mongolian yurts as indoor spaces when needed. The camps run primarily outdoors, building an appreciation for nature in all conditions!
Find the details of each camp below and click on the link to register. Each camp requires a minimum of 6 campers to run. If we do not get 6 campers registered, that week of camp is not viable to run and will be canceled with one month’s notice. Last summer, all 9 weeks of summer were a go! Payments can be made by e-transfer or cash can be dropped off at our site.
Camps will run from 9am-3pm. Drop off begins at 8:45 and Pick up ends at 3:30. All camps will have before and after care as an optional add on. Before care will start at 8am for $10 a day. After care will run until 4:30 for $10 a day. Campers are responsible for bringing their own lunches and drinking water.
All camps are run by facilitators with teaching experience and/or outdoor education experience, first aid and CPR and vulnerable sector police checks.
Please review the attached Parent Handbook so that you are aware of our philosophies and policies.
We welcome high school volunteers.
