VOICES OF OUR CAMP FAMILY

Our Mission

Image
Our camp is for all children whose lives have been affected by cancer – this includes their brothers and sisters. Bereaved children are also invited to camp. Camp Circle O’ Friends is unique in that it takes all the children in the home between the ages of 6 – 18 years of age. This provides the parents a much-needed respite and an opportunity to go to a show, out for dinner or simply enjoy a quiet bubble bath.

Our Activities

Image
There is so much to do and so many things to learn and experience. Activities at camp include indoor and outdoor crafts, swimming, fishing, horseback riding, outdoor cooking, native crafts, a rock climbing wall, media production, water-skiing and tubing, a petting zoo and a variety of sports.

Our Volunteers

Image
Camp Circle O’ Friends is only possible with the help and support of many dedicated and passionate volunteers. Volunteers must be 19 years of age and must complete a Volunteer Application form and get a Criminal Record Check. New volunteers must have at least two references and meet with the volunteer coordinator for an interview.
