Summer Camp

Summer Quest Day Camp

There's always fun to be had at our Summer Quest Day Camp! We offer camp in three locations across Springwater:

1. Elmvale Arena (14 George Street)
2. Midhurst Community Centre (74 Doran Road)
3. Minesing Community Centre (2347 Ronald Road)

Summer Quest Camp includes weekly off-site trips.

Specialty Camps

We have something to offer every camper, from art and dance to golf and leadership! Campers will develop their skills with formal instruction each day while enjoying a full line-up of traditional camp activities.

Camp on Wheels 

Every summer, our Camp on Wheels program visits different areas of Springwater. This program is free and provides camp games, crafts and activities. There will also be a mobile skate park.

This is a drop-in program and parents will need to sign a waiver before their child can participate. We provide trained camp staff to supervise activities, but parents and guardians are encouraged to stay. 

Winter Camp

Winter Camp is perfect for campers looking for the traditional camp experience mixed with special winter field trips. Winter Camp will run over three days at the Midhurst Community Centre:

• Monday, December 30, 2019 - Snow Tubing at Snow Valley Ski Resort
• Thursday, January 2, 2020 - Gymfinity Gymnastics
• Friday, January 3, 2020 - Winter Fun Bash (on-site)

Drop off is between 8:30 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. Pick up is between 4:00 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. 

March Break Camp

We hold March Break Camp during the March Break for children aged 5-12 at the Midhurst Community Centre and Elmvale Arena, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Children enjoy themed games, crafts and activities each day!
