A camp leader once told my tent-mates and I when I was 10 years old, “If you really want to enjoy the outdoors, you need to learn to see.” As camp counsellors, teachers, and social workers we support youth to see, writes Jim McHardy, director of the Kinark Outdoor Centre in Minden, Ontario.
At the first ever Our Kids Summer Camp Expo, representatives and staff from over forty-five different summer camps filled the hall with booths equipped with beach balls, wooden cabin-like roofs, as well as frisbees, arts and crafts, and even mini-s’mores! Each camp brought it’s own slice of summer to meet with over 600 curious families, consisting of parents as well as their budding campers, whether they browsed through their options in strollers or in tightly-packed huddles of teenage friends.
