This camp was founded by the Jesuits in 1962 and is on 1700 acres with 6 lakes (I am convinced it is illegal in Canada to open a camp without at least one beautiful lake.)
They use tee pee accommodation and log cabins and are in the process of trying to raise $24million over 5 years to upgrade the camp.
They have a range of programs focused on young people who have dropped out of school to try to get them to go back to school.
These campers spend 2 weeks at school learning skills like cooking or maintenance and then come to camp for 2 weeks to put those skills into practice.
