Description
Adventure is calling - are you ready to answer the song of the Oradaca Orioles? Guided by a nature specialist, you’ll explore trails, track animal footprints, build simple shelters and discover how to read a map on your very own treasure hunt. You’ll test your teamwork with obstacle courses made from nature itself and bring campfire stories to life with songs, skits and imagination. The overnight event is the highlight of the summer, complete with a night hike, tents, stories by the fire and breakfast the next morning cooked outdoors. At Camp Oradaca, every spark of curiosity becomes a new memory under the stars. 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. In these rare circumstances, parents/guardians will be notified prior to the start of the camp day to drop-off their child at the community centre. The overnight experience takes place on Thursday during 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 experience or may stay for the barbecue, 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, Vaughan Studios & Event Space, the City Playhouse Theatre, or for any half-day camp.
