DAY CAMP PROGRAM DETAILS
Campers are to be dropped off between 8:30-9:00AM Monday to Friday. Please use 275 Conlin Road East, Oshawa, ON entrance to Camp Samac and park in the parking lot. Families must sign their child(ren) in and out each day. Regular pick up is between 4:00-4:30PM.
Our Day Camp is an outdoor focused program, which emphasizes the development of outdoor skills, environmental awareness, and wilderness exploration on the camp’s 166 scenic acres. Each camper will enjoy activities within their group as well as visiting our many sites on the property, including: our Waterfront Centre where campers participate in canoeing; the Arts & Crafts Centre where they create, build, sculpt, and paint; and our Nature Centre where youth will learn about the many species of plants and animals at Camp Samac and participate in fun projects involving nature and the environment. Our campers also have daily access to our outdoor pool where our campers hone their swimming skills or enjoy playing in the water with friends. We pride our program on the emphasis of outdoor skill development, including but not limited to fire and shelter building, knot tying, hiking, orienteering, archery, creek studies, and more!
Note: Activities may vary based on weather conditions.
