From the Executive Director:
As summer approaches, there is a growing sense of excitement here at Camp Kawartha. Summer Camp staff are beginning to gather once again in anticipation of another season of laughter, friendship, discovery, and connection to the outdoors.
At the same time, we are celebrating another incredible year of outdoor and environmental education, where thousands of students experienced the joy of learning beyond the classroom walls through forests, wetlands, meadows, and hands-on exploration. We are also deeply grateful for the support that has helped us move forward with our new accessible washrooms in the dining hall, an important step toward ensuring camp is welcoming and accessible to all.
Alongside this work, our Growing Nature Play initiative continues to inspire children and educators to rediscover the power of imagination, curiosity, and free play in nature through the simple beauty of sticks, stones, branches, and other loose parts from the natural world.
Together, these initiatives remind us of something important: when children are given meaningful opportunities to connect with nature and with one another, wonderful things begin to grow.
