I went to Camp Kanawana in the late 60s […]. My daughter went to Camp Kanawana in the late 90s and I am proud to say that my grandson just spent his first summer […] at Camp Kanawana. I think this has to be one of (if not) the best summer camps in Quebec. The children are so well supervised but also have the chance to spread their wings […]. The stories and memories that they come home with are amazing.
