OUR PROGRAMS

*Summer registration opens at 12pm (noon) on

February 3rd, 2025*

Tadpole

Specially designed for first-time campers, our Tadpole Session offers 3 nights of summer camp fun with extra staff support to ensure our youngest campers have a positive summer camp experience!

Junior

Our Junior Sessions offer a 5-night classic summer camp experience including swimming, canoeing and kayaking, out-tripping, faith exploration, sports and games, arts and crafts, and more!

Intermediate

Our Intermediate Sessions are the perfect, 5-night balance between Junior and Senior age groups.  They include all the Kidston classics like swimming, canoeing and kayaking, out-tripping, faith exploration, sports and games, arts and crafts, and more!

Senior

​​​Camp Kidston offers two different options for Senior age campers. 

 

Our Classic Senior Session offers 5 nights of Kidston fun - swimming, canoeing, kayaking, out-tripping, sports and games, arts and crafts, faith exploration, and more - but with extra adventure and leadership options added in to best suit teen campers! 

Our Wilderness Senior Session focuses on outdoor education and leadership skills.  Daily programming centers around out-tripping (camping) skills, canoeing/kayaking, swimming and water activities, leadership and team-building, and environmental awareness.  This includes the opportunity to plan and participate in extended overnight out-trips (weather-permitting) to campsites across Kidston's property around Long Lake.  Of course, this session still includes Kidston favourites such as sports and games, arts, campfires, and faith exploration!

Leadership Programs (Junior Leaders & CITs)

Our Junior Leader and CIT Programs are designed to develop leadership skills and confidence in working with children, and includes skill development, team building, and unique opportunities to learn to lead programs and work with younger campers! 

More information and detailed FAQs on both Leadership Programs can be found here.
