In-town summer camps

HGREC Camps

Haida Gwaii Recreation has been providing affordable, in-town summer day camps for local youth ages 5* – 12 years for over 40 years! In our camps, we combine a weekly theme with fun activities that include sport, art, and getting outside, along with healthy snacks & engaging workshops delivered by local instructors (Camp Specialists).

NEW IN 2024

  • Our Summer Camps will have a new minimum age of 5 years or completed Kindergarten, up to maximum age 12 years.
  • Science Al!ve camps are for grades 3 (must have completed grade 3) to grade 7.
  • We are committed to supporting partner in-town camps, amplifying the opportunity for recreational childcare in our communities. We will aid in ScienceAl!ve registration in 2024 via our website.
