Registration Update For Overnight Summer Camp 2021
As we all look forward to the hope that camp will be able to run this summer, we are still unsure if COVID-19 restrictions will be lifted. Though we remain optimistic that camps will be able to run if restrictions are lifted, if that doesn’t happen, we are looking at alternative programming.
Pre-Registration Opens March 1st
Online pre-registration for overnight summer camps, will begin March 1st. As we don’t know all the details about how camp will be running, we will not be asking you to fill out the registration form in full detail. For now, we will only be asking you to Pre-Register your spot. This will allow you to secure your preferred week, and give you first priority to register for the alternative programming we may have to provide instead.
A decision to move forward with Easter Seals Overnight Summer Camps will be made by May 1st, and the decision will be based on the current guidelines provided by the B.C. government and health officers. Once we have confirmed that overnight summer camp will happen, we will then ask you to complete the registration process and provide your medical forms.
Share Your Programming Ideas
In the event we are unable to deliver overnight summer camp, we would love to hear what type of programming would interest your camper and family instead. There will be a space available for you to share your ideas when you fill out the Pre-Registration Form that will be available on our website on March 1st.
Our Commitment To You
As always, our mission is to make sure that all children and adults with disabilities have the best summer. We’re here to provide camp programs where campers can be outdoors while they develop their self-awareness, improve their self-confidence, increase their positive growth in physical activities and create lasting friendships.
For now, please stay tuned as we determine the best way to deliver camps safely, and with great fun and enjoyment this year!
