Camp White Pine is just one of many summer camps in Canada.
With so many camps to choose from, why choose Camp White Pine?
Choosing the right summer camp for your child is a very important decision for any parent. To make it easier, it’s important to ask yourself a few questions first:
What type of activities is my child interested in doing at summer camp?
Does the summer camp have those activities?
What is the summer camp’s main focus; Is it on camp activities, or making friends during the summer?
Where is the camp located?
Is the camp accredited by the Canadian Camping Association? What about the Ontario Camping Association?
Of course there are more questions to ask, and contacting a summer camp director, or visiting a summer camp’s website should yeild the answers.
Sending a child overseas to attend a summer camp in Canada is an exciting opportunity. There are many summer camps all around Canada and the United States offering a wide variety of programs for campers of all ages. Most summer camps place a lot of emphasis on teaching campers a wide variety of skills in a natural setting.
But the greatest thing campers can take away from any camp experience are the friends they made there. Friendships formed at camp are often lifelong and very close. With people from all around the world, these friendships have even more value as they allow campers to reach out across cultural and physical boundaries to make connections with others they might not have had the opportunity to meet otherwise.
For many families, the thought of sending their child away for the summer is frightening. What will the be up to? Will the be safe? Will the be happy? Those are just some of the questions parents might ask themselves. Of course these aren’t uncommon questions; they’re the most important ones to ask, actually.
At most Ontario Summer Camps, campers are engaged in supervised activities from wake-up to lights out. Highly-trained staff supervise campers on a 1:2 ratio, and healthy, delicious food is always available. Warm and caring staff help to ensure that kids are not only having fun, but that they’re having fun together; which is what camp’s all about.
