Peacekeeper Park 2006

The summer of 2006, PKP will be running two - one week special needs adventure camps.  As well we have a two week Leaders in Training Camp to offer to the youth. Each camp will accept a maximum 25 youth with special needs.  The campers will have the opportunity to experience a summer adventure camp of hiking, canoeing, cycling, camp skills and abseil tower. We are looking for DEA participants who would like to volunteer their time as Camp Counselors and be role models and mentors to our campers. We also
offer two training weekends prior to camp.

There is no cost. You bring your tent and sleeping bag and everything else is supplied. Food is catered. For more information please contact Bev Bast, Camp Director at bev.bast@sympatico.ca or (519)245-5222.
