Arrival/Departure
Camp is based in Squamish, we offer pick up and drop off service either at the Vancouver International Airport or Vancouver Outdoors Society’s Office in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
To understand and appreciate the spectacular wild and natural beauty of British Columbia the group will spend two nights camped outside under the stars at a backcountry trail campsite where they will learn basic survival skills. There will also be a high alpine day hike (accessed by gondola car) where participants will travel in a high mountain environment where there are year-round snow fields and glaciers! Participants will learn about the history and culture of local First Nations and will also get the opportunity to explore the city of Vancouver along with the Olympic town of Whistler.
This exciting Canadian west coast program is perfectly designed for teens and will leave each participant with incredible memories! It is a once in a lifetime experience and we hope you will join us for your unforgettable Canadian Dream Summer!

Sample Daily Schedule
Summer Fun, Filled Full to the Brim
Days at camp follow a steady rhythm. Mornings are fast moving. Campers hit the ground running (literally for some!) as they head to breakfast and the daily activity. Things slow down when we are heading back to the dormitory and prepare for dinner, then there’s an evening activity before we wind the day down.
For campers, it’s the perfect mix — lots of activity to keep everyone engaged, with times to recharge through the day. Campers don’t get bored because they have a diverse schedule intentionally designed to make it a fun-filled summer away from home.

Half Term or Whole?
Some campers aren’t sure if they’re ready to commit to two weeks away from home. Campers have the option of signing up for the 1st half of a term (the A term), and then choosing if they want to stay for the second half (the B term).
Nine times out of ten, teens are having so much fun they want to stay on for the 2nd half. We encourage two weeks term, as they will get the FULL camp experience, but we do understand that each person is different and may need to start with a shorter term to “get their feet wet.”
We will support you in whatever term you choose. If you have any questions about choosing the right term, please give us a call.
