We are Andy’s Toys!
So much for being “Joanne’s toys” – today we were most definitely Andy’s toys as the amazing Toy Story-themed Colour War kicked off to a great start! Before the wakeup bell even rang campers were pouring out of their cabins dressed in full colour gear and cheering at the tops of their lungs. This morning […]

To Infinity and Beyond!!!
What a day!!! Today dawned beautiful and sunny and we were treated to the beautiful sight of mist rising off the lake as we lined up for breakfast. The perfect summer weather continued throughout the day with a nice breeze pushing along sailboats and windsurfers and keeping ballers on the land nice and cool as they […]

Whew – we did it! After breakfast today we greeted 40 5-7 year olds and hosted them for a day of camp fun to show what Arowhon is all about. A few showers didn’t stop our staff from giving them an incredible taste of Planet Arowhon! They canoed, sailed, rode horses, climbed walls, and ziplined […]

Campers enjoyed their chocolate croissants, smoked salmon, and eggs to order while soaking up the rays of sunshine on the ML steps and […]
ContinueFirst Class Fun
There are a lot of “firsts” that happen at Arowhon. For many it’s the first time they will ride a horse, windsurf across the lake, skipper a sailboat, catch a frog, or get to the top of the high ropes course. These “firsts” are powerful learning experiences. To do something new brings tremendous growth. To […]

Silver Funshine
One of the most magical times on Planet Arowhon is the hour before breakfast. I was invited to watch an Arowhon A class (a prestigious award in style swimming and diving), this morning, and to be honest when my alarm rang all I wanted to do was roll over and go back to sleep. However, […]
