Camp Description:
WHERE ADVENTURES BEGIN! Since 1943, Canadian and international campers have joined together for a summer of fun, laughter, friendships, sports, activities, adventures and memories. Located on Fairy Lake in the beautiful Muskoka region of Ontario, Swallowdale Camp welcomes campers ages 7 – 15 (LIT 16 years).

Facilities: Cabins accommodate 8 – 12 campers in bunk beds. Staff are also housed in a separate room within the cabin to ensure proper supervision at all times. Each cabin has electricity, a toilet and a sink. Central showers are also available. Campers are divided by age and gender, and take pride in being part of their “cabin family” in friendly competitions and games.

Our campers are never bored. Every day they choose 5 sport or specialty activities from a vast array of options. All activities are instructed and supervised by dedicated camp staff.

LIT Programme (maximum 15 participants): Young people aged 16 years are welcome to apply to this leadership programme which allows participants to gain hands-on experience and develop an array of skills including social responsibility, self-confidence, teamwork and communication.

Language Instruction: ESL is available as an option for international campers as well as Canadian campers whose first language is not English. 10 hours per week of ESL is taught by qualified instructors. ESL comprises 2 of the 5 activity periods daily.

Our staff: The high quality of our language, sports and activities programmes is further augmented by our staff of sensitive, dedicated and professional instructors and counselors. They truly care about each student, and ensure that students receive the attention and care needed to make their stay great.
