Reflections from a Visiting Alum

We had 10 alumni join us to help run Mini Camp this weekend and it was such a treat to see how their love of camp (and ours of them) has only grown with each year apart. Here’s what one of them had to say: After 8 years of being a camper, 1 as an […]

Mini Camp is finally here!

Mini camp is one of my favourite times in Algonquin because it’s a chance to see the next generation of our big Arowhon family discover the magic of camp.  I was lucky enough to grow up with my family at Arowhon, but for many young kids, spending time away from home – especially two weeks […]

the fear of leaving and the joy of returning

The night before campers leave, we always have a special ceremony where we honour people who have dedicated a significant part of their life to Arowhon. They sometimes involve those people speaking about what camp means to them – one of the most inspiring things for nervous neophytes to hear. One of them this month […]

What a Day!

It started with our epic Sunday Sleep-in Brunch featuring bagels with smoked salmon and cream cheese, chocolate croissants, tropical fruit, and eggs-to-order, and ended with raucous Sadie Notkins dance where everyone chased everyone, went on hay rides, ate barbecued corn and danced til they were drenched. In between we had a super general (where kids […]

Rocking out on Planet Arowhon

It’s been a hot, sunny, and amazing few days on Planet Arowhon. Now that camp is well underway the energy is really ramping up and it feels like the special events just keep on coming! Last night we were blown away by a truly incredible Junior Play – School of Rock. The kids delivered their […]

getting into the groove

I took advantage of the perfect conditions and spent 4th period on a windsurfer getting tips from Senior Moose, and as much as I learned about windsurfing I learned […]

Jumping in with Both Feet

With tour day behind us, we’ve jumped full swing into the momentum of camp and with the wonderful weather it feels exactly how summer camp should: full of laughter, growth, trying new things, friendships new and old, and fun in the sun. The Junior Play was announced yesterday with a rambunctious skit and everyone who […]

SECOND SESSION 2022 – INTER OWLS CABIN PHOTOS

Fabulous First Day!

Watching the first day of second session I was overcome with pride in the growth our staff have undergone in the last 4 weeks. We all know that the best way to learn is by doing, but it’s always a bit unnerving at the end of June staff training sending the novices into the field […]

Don’t Cry Because it’s Over

Smile because it happened. That is our traditional last day of camp flagpole quote, and I couldn’t help smile as I watched the sun rise over Tepee Lake at 5:30 this morning. July 2022 was everything we needed: a return to the normal magic of camp life! Hugs, sing-a-longs, playing freely with friends… a chance […]
