Summer Camp

More Than Just Fun

It’s About Connection

At the Youth and Family Wellness Camp, summer camp is about more than just fun—it’s about connection. Through both day and overnight camps, we bring together children from across our eight founding communities and Kenora to learn, play, and grow in a safe, culturally grounded environment. Through land-based activities, games, and shared experiences, campers build friendships, foster trust, and create memories that last a lifetime. Our goal is to nurture relationships between youth, their peers, and the land, helping every child feel seen, supported, and part of something bigger.

We are committed to making camp accessible while ensuring it can continue to run in a sustainable way.

This year, we are introducing participant fees to help cover the real costs of camp, including transportation, meals, accommodations, and staffing.

As an Indigenous-led organization, our work is rooted in supporting youth from our partner First Nation communities. Reduced rates are available for participants connected to these communities, while a standard rate applies to others.

We recognize that cost can be a barrier, and flexible payment options or additional support may be available. Please reach out to discuss what is possible before completing your registration.

A confirmation email will be sent once your child's spot is secured. Priority is given to youth from the First Nations communities we serve. 

A detailed schedule and packing list will be shared prior to each camp week.
