Now that the winter chill has officially settled in, it’s time to grab a nice warm mug of hot cocoa and spend some time thinking about summer camp. It’s never too early to get started in planning your summertime activities!

Summer camp is one of the best ways to experience the great outdoors and to build friendships that will last a lifetime. There are always fun outdoor activities planned for campers to help them enjoy the many wonders to be experienced in nature, whether it be nature walks, beach days, canoeing lessons, soccer games, or any of the thousands of other things you can do to enjoy the outdoors. Going to summer camp offers an incredible opportunity to share your love of nature with new friends, which is truly something everyone should get to experience at some point in their life.

Registration for most summer camps typically opens in mid-February so be sure to start investigating soon. There are plenty of options out there, but if you’re not sure where to start when trying to choose the right summer camp, check out your local community centre or go online to find out about other camps in your area. If you’re looking to really connect with nature, why not check out overnight camps instead of day camps? Whatever you choose, you’re guaranteed to have a wonderful experience and gain a unique appreciation of nature.
