12-day Explorers Pioneers (11-12)

Campers aged 11 to 12 have the opportunity to explore the hundreds of acres of forested wilderness on the Kanawana site, led by our experienced and well-trained guides.

Campers spend most days in our Regular Residential Camp program while also preparing and training for their 3-4-day camping trip, which will combine canoeing and hiking components. All our trips are centered on teamwork and community living while helping campers develop their own leadership skills.

Please note: For safety purposes, Camp YMCA Kanawana reserves the right to change the length and locations of each trip. These will be determined depending on weather, water, and road conditions, as well as the overall schedule of trips each session.
Canoe trips are physically demanding, and require a certain level of swimming ability. Camp YMCA Kanawana therefore reserves the right to refuse any participant we deem unable to cope with the demands of such a trip.

Cancellation of Camp YMCA Kanawana

It is with a heavy heart that we must confirm that all our Camp Kanawana YMCA programs are cancelled for the summer.

Despite getting the green light from the government to hold overnight camps this summer, adapting our physical spaces, facilities, and equipment to COVID-19 health measures requires too many changes and effort. While we are committed to supporting kids, we are unable to get Kanawana up and running safely in a timely manner. Therefore, we will sadly remain closed this summer.

Please visit our FAQ section to learn how any payments made will be refunded and get answers to the questions you may have about this decision.
