The Canada Summer Camps – A Great Opportunity For Children

The summer camp conducted in Canada resembles in many aspects of those conducted in the US. The participants are offered two types and they are the day and the residential camps and they can choose either of the two. These are arranged at not less than 800 locations in Canada. They were started during the period 1890 – 1900 and the first location was Ontario. The maximum number of them is arranged in Ontario even today. Besides Ontario the Canada camps are conducted at other seven provinces of Canada. Just like Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec and Alberta have a lot of such activities. While the kids are provided with various types of entertainments, opportunities to build up new friendships etc. they also have the chance to travel to Canada and stay and enjoy the life at the beautiful countrysides of Canada. School going children in the age group 5 – 18 years are eligible to participate. Besides the amazing experience of a trip to Canada, they can have new friends from other countries, enjoy lots of fun and entertainments and develop their personality by way of participating in the various activities, assignments and tasks.

The residential camps are usually conducted at the rural places. The children have a busy work schedule during day time since there are lots of activities. They are provided with tents or cabins to relax at night. At the summer camp the children are encouraged to work hard and accept new responsibilities and challenges. The nature of activities as well as the environment will be different from one organizer to another. In some cases, children are permitted to continue in the jobs even after completion of the program. The counselors and other officials take care of the children and move with them very friendly.
