International Campers

Medical Insurance

• It is mandatory for all campers to have medical insurance that covers them during their entire stay at camp. Camp YMCA Kanawana does not provide medical insurance on behalf of campers. Please send a copy of your medical insurance via email to the camp administration team at wellness@ymcaquebec.org before June 1. Please also send your child to camp with a hard copy that includes the insurance policy number and any contact information that might be useful should your child require a trip to a medical professional.

Airport Transportation

• We can offer airport pick-up and/or drop-off for an extra fee. If your child requires transportation from the airport, please let us know by emailing or calling the camp administration team: camp.kanawana@ymcaquebec.org or 514-687-9622. Airport transportation fees are $75 plus tax each way or $150 plus tax for a round trip.

Flights

• It is very important that camper flights are booked to arrive no earlier than June 24th and depart no later than August 16th. There will be no campers on site prior to June 24th and after August 16th, and we cannot guarantee we will have a driver available to bring your child to or from the airport or have staff to supervise them. If you need to book a flight outside of those dates, please speak with the summer camp director first.
• Please send your child’s flight itinerary to camp.kanawana@ymcaquebec.org as soon as you have booked your flight(s). Ideally, parents or guardians should book their child’s flight(s) before June 1.
• A Camp YMCA Kanawana driver can pick up and/or drop off your child at the airport on the first or last day of a session or during camp changeovers. If your child will be arriving during a changeover, you will be charged $385 plus tax for the changeover supervision and meals. Please visit our website for the changeover dates.

International Camper Airport Pick-Up

• If your child will be travelling as an unaccompanied minor, please contact us for information about the driver who will be scheduled to pick up your camper. We will not know the driver’s schedule more than one or two weeks ahead of time. The driver will have a Camp YMCA Kanawana sign so your child can identify them, and we will provide you with a cell phone number if you need to contact them during transit days.

Personal Belongings

• We recognize that many campers arriving from out of province often have valuable personal belongings for their travel time such as passports, cash, cell phones, music players and other electronic devices. Such items will be safely stored in the camp safe, which can only be accessed by the summer camp director and assistant summer camp director. The camper’s belongings will be stored on the first day of camp and returned only upon their departure from camp.
