Pre-Spring is Well Underway!

Saturday May 1st was the first day back at camp for a fantastic Pre-Spring Team! The staff have been incredibly hard at work and having fun and laughter every step along the way. They have cleaned every nook and cranny of the kitchen and the many cabins on the Glen Mhor Programme. They have raked [...]

Thanks for the Summer Friends

Well, another wonderful summer has come to an end. The resource staff are packing up the last of camp, and we will all say goodbye to each other tonight and tomorrow. Last night we had a final campfire where we shared our favourite stories from the last four months. We heard funny stories, sad stories, [...]

Summer’s End

I guess you could measure the success and fun of a week of camp by the absence of my blog posts. The last 2 weeks of the summer were so busy, and so amazing, that I just couldn’t keep up on the internet! As the resource staff are closing camp and preparing to leave tonight [...]

More Jr’s

We have Jr’s again! The theme this week is Mouse Trap and it is super cool. The farmers have been trying every day to catch the mice, and the trap gets more elaborate each time. Last night during evening programme the Jr’s rounded up all of the mice and put them in the “Cheese Room”. [...]

The First Ever Cottagers’ Day Camp

2009 gave us the great opportunity of an extra week of summer. With this blessing, we decided to run Day Camp for cottagers and Lake of Bays residents. The result was an unforgettable success. Day Camp was a wonderful experience that our staff are still talking about. Our kids came from 9am to 4pm every [...]

We had many returning families as well as some fantastic newcomers. Many of the faces this year belonged to the families of our staff members, [...]

We Love Pee-Wee’s!

For the past three days we have had so much fun, and have been so busy with our Pee-Wee campers that I forgot to let all our blog-readers in on the fun! The Pee-Wee camp theme was Lego, and we had a great time building and decorating our own blocks, as well as making Lego [...]

Adventure Camp 2009

Our lovely Intermediates have left today from both Iona and Glen Mhor, after spectacular closing campfires. Now it is the Adventure Campers left to rule camp! Adventure Camp runs for two weeks and the teens have been learning how to belay, climb, and get muddy. This weekend they are taking off to the island for an overnight. Have fun [...]

Goings-on at Cairn

We are busy, busy, busy this week, and we are having a great time. The Superheroes are hard at work trying to catch Dr. Horrible, Adventure Campers are having a blast, and the Iona team just finished a 24hour overnight on the Muskoka River. Here are some pictures from the Glen Mhor site this week.

Intermediates in Baysville, Teens in Temagami!

It has been a busy morning here at Cairn. We have Intermediates (and lots of them!) at both Glen Mhor and Iona this week, and we just waved goodbye to the teens who are off to trip the Temagami River. Cairn is also hosting the SH6 (Super Hero 6) Summit at the Glen Mhor site, [...]
