programs for all ages
Summer Camp Programs
Easter Seals has been offering a camp experience to children and adults across BC and Yukon with diverse abilities since 1952.
From day camps, to week long overnight camps, there are options available for all interests, and for all children and adults ages 6-49 years old. Trained counsellors bring out the fun and silly in every activity and event, creating experiences that instill confidence, and memories that last a lifetime.
Registration Update – April 2021
We all looked forward to the hope that overnight camp would be able to run this summer, but due to the current guidelines we have made the decision to provide alternative programming to the overnight camp program. This will include day camps, family overnight weekend camps, and virtual programming.
If you have preregistered for a camp spot, you will have until May 3rd to secure a spot in another program. You will receive your spot based on the same order that you preregistered in. After May 3, all spots will become first-come, first-serve, based on the spots available in the camps and classes.
Depending on how quickly programs fill up, we may be able to make additional programs or spaces available. If a program is full, please enroll on the waitlist, and we will be able to assess other options.
Our Commitment To You
As always, our mission is to make sure that all children and adults with disabilities have the best summer. We will ensure campers are safe, while providing a fun place to make new friendships and lasting memories for years to come.
