About this Course

Soar with the Orioles to Boyd Conservation Area! Connect with nature close to home in this Outdoor Recreation Adventure Day Camp, filled with nature oriented activities led by a designated nature specialist, plus sports, arts & crafts and outdoor water play. An overnight event where campers go on a night hike, sleep in tents and bond with new friends, highlights this wilderness experience. Older campers prepare a campsite complete with a campfire, tent, safety precautions and of course...food. Songs, stories, night hikes, dinner, breakfast, and special events make this an annual tradition! Note: Oradaca is an outdoor program and campers 'weather' the elements. However, if inclement weather compromises campers' safety or negatively impacts the quality of programming, the camp may temporarily be relocated indoors to Al Palladini Community Centre. The overnight takes place on Thursday the second week of each session. Overnight programming may be cancelled at any time. Due to safety reasons, campers who receive support during the day are required to be accompanied by their support worker (see eligibility criteria) for the overnight or may stay for the BBQ, night hike and campfire before being picked up and may return for breakfast. The camp day is 8:30am to 4:30pm. Camp programming runs from 9am to 4pm. Before & After Care is not available for camps located at heritage homes, parks, the City Playhouse Theatre, or for any half day camp.
