The goal of this program is to connect our youth with their communities, increase activity time in a childs day and to improve on our skills! We do this by:
-
Having Community Mentors come in each week to introduce themselves as well as introduce more programs in our communities for our youth to utilize.
-
Healthy Snacks and Drinks Provided!
-
Out of 2 hours, at least half will be spent on our feet, increasing our heart rates! We also use pedometers to track our steps and see how good we do.
-
The Coordinator of the program took a 3 day course with the Red Cross about Healthy Youth Relationships and Beyond The Hurt;Bullying and a lot of the information from it is used in this program. Along with that she brings experience from being in the Bachelor of Education and she utilizes those skills to foster the program.
Our Weekly Topics Include:
Building strong children, strong families and strong communities!

Three Reason Why You Might Consider Sending Your Child to Camp WaNaGo:
-
When children go to a day camp, they have an opportunity to decide what activities to participate in, and they have a chance at some independence. They learn skills to become self-reliant and as a result, develop more confidence.
-
While day camp can be like school – it runs without the threat of failure. Kids are just there to have fun; they always achieve success at camp!
-
Participating in day camps can enhance and develop social skills. This can be one of the greatest benefits of the camp experiences as children usually shed their concerns of not being accepted because of what they wear, how they look or what they’re good at. Everyone has a place at day camp.
