Activities from last year:
Theme for Camp Skeeter
This year’s theme for Camp Skeeter is Skeeter goes to Hogwarts. All of this year’s events will be geared towards our magical theme. You are welcome to decorate your campsite with and wear costumes based on the theme, there will be prizes and awards.
Swimming Information!!
*** Don’t forget your bathing suits! Trips to Nanaimo Aquatic Center will be on Sunday May 21st for $5 each. The site includes: hot tub, sauna, steam room, wave pool, lazy river, and water slides.
*** Please keep in mind that the logistic of trips to the pool are a nightmare and to expect wait times as we will only have one bus. (and no we cannot just rent two busses as it is too expensive).
Hiking Information!!
*** This year the hike from camp to ammonite falls is back on Saturday May 20th. We realized last year how popular this was so we will be doing it in smaller groups. This is a 5km hike each way from Camp Calliet. If you plan on going on the hike proper footwear and clothing is required or you will not be allowed to go. Sign up to be at camp Saturday morning.
