Get ready for adventure at Camp Woods!

Join us this summer! Here on the shores of Sylvan Lake at Camp Woods, we know how to do the true camp experience.

For nearly 100 years, Scouts have been coming to Camp Woods to further their outdoor skills and leadership, kick off wonderful friendships and become lifelong outdoor enthusiasts. Now, through our new overnight summer camps we are thrilled to give non-Scouts and Scouts alike the chance to experience Camp Woods!

Margaret is Retiring

After 28 years with Scouts Canada, I will be retiring on June 22. I have really enjoyed my time at Scouts. I’ve met the most amazing people, dedicated hardworking adults and adventurous, kind and confident youth. This organization is better because of the volunteers who work it and I have been happy to be a part of the growth and changes we have been through.

Thank you to all who have made this a most enjoyable career! All the best as the organization moves forward.

Margaret Van Brederode
