Mama Mia!

Here we go again! The second play of the summer was even more EVERYTHING than we could have hoped for. It was fun, funny, creative, touching, and full of heart and soul from all involved. All the hard work the camper cast and crew put into preparing over the last weeks paid off and the […]

It’s Getting Hot Out Here

There’s nowhere better to be in the middle of a heatwave than on a lake in Algonquin Park! We have literally ZERO swim “refuseniks” this summer and the Nautilus (our newest giant floating playground) is in high demand (today for the high class rock climbers to practice their “free solo” skills).

Super Sunday

It was a SUPER special Sunday today with our traditional sleep-in and buffet brunch, compete with tropical fruit, chocolate croissants, smoked salmon, and eggs to order.

Where has the time gone!?!

While we love seeing smiles on children’s faces, we were incredibly touched by all the tears that were shed by campers and staff alike as we said goodbye to the 2 week Juniors.

Camp Drama

It’s been a dramatic couple of days on Tepee Lake… literally! The 2022 Rustic Lounge theatre season kicked off with an amazingly adorable Moana Medley by the Juniors. They sang and danced their little hearts out and warmed ours with their courage and talent. This morning at breakfast we were all on the edges of […]

The Sounds of Camp

They change, hour by hour, throughout the day. Mornings, when the lake is still and the kids are just waking up, we can hear the cry of the loons on the lake (they just had a chick). Once the morning bell rings, you can hear kids waking and getting ready for the day. Soon, that’s […]
