The Our Kids review of Camp UofT Scarborough

Camp U of T Scarborough hosts leadership training programs that bring closer to home something that is more common in overnight settings, providing an opportunity for young people to grow into new roles, new responsibilities, and a new appreciation of the skills and talents that they personally can contribute to a group environment. The afternoon programs—including academic topics cast in playful light—are run as mini-University sessions, giving kids a sense of what university academic life is like. In all of that and more, there’s a lot to love, both for parents and kids. These are some the best, and best run, day programs in the region.

Dear Campers and Youth,

We are super excited to welcome you all to the 2019 edition of Camp U of T Scarborough!

Summer is almost here! The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and the clock is ticking towards another amazing eight weeks at camp. We are both eager to see familiar faces, and can’t wait to meet all of you who are new to camp this year. The 2019 team has been working hard to deliver incredible programming that you can all enjoy and learn from. This is going to be a summer for the books!

This year, we have a great assortment of returning and new staff, with familiar faces including Shaggy, Bonhomme, Vert, Ozzy, Spike and many more! They have all been working hard to plan fun games and activities for you to enjoy. Your favorite programs are all back — Tennis, Arts & Crafts, Computers, Dance-Fit, Drama, Fine Arts, and Kid’s Science. We are also excited to announce our new extra-special morning program option — our themed camp weeks, where campers have the opportunity to expand their knowledge in a variety of fun and educational activities such as Cooking and Math with Lego to highlight a few. Finally, we can’t wait for more rounds of Capture-the-Flag, Ninja, Predator and Prey, as well as returning camp classics such as Games Week, Friday Special Events, the Talent Show and Pudding Dunk!

Our Leaders-in-Training (LIT) Program is as strong as ever this year; we are so excited to see youth that are ready to develop the skills needed to become amazing leaders. The 2-week LIT certificate programs are open to ages 13-16. Youth that participate in these programs will attend a variety of skill-building workshops, have the opportunity to job shadow with Camp Counsellors, learn to build their own cover letter and resume and put their leadership abilities to the test by occasionally leading a program or special event for campers aged 6-12. During each two week program, teens will enjoy time at the Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre pool, an overnight camping at the Toronto Zoo, conquer rock-climbing at Joe Rockhead’s and practice their equestrian skills at Ajax Riding Academy

We look forward to building incredible new memories this summer at Camp U of T Scarborough!

Enjoy the last few weeks of school, and see you soon,
