Camp Spirit celebrates your child's journey of Wonder with two age-specific programs:

​Day Camps for Children 5-11 yrs!
  • At Camp Spirit we value listening to & experiencing Sacred Stories, enjoying times of Creativity & Science, moving to Music, Sharing Meals together, and fostering Community, Friendships & Leadership! 
​​Leader In Training (LIT) Programs ​for People 12-14 years! (not offered at all sites)
  • ​Camp Spirit LIT is about to making friendships, developing leadership skills, and having fun. LITs play games, explore the camp's theme, and challenge themselves and each other in leadership skills and activities. LITs work together to decide what they are most interested in leading - following their gifts and passions. LITs work as a team to lead Camp Spirit Day Campers in some activities (with Staff supervision!).

How Much? When? Where?

Financial Accessibility
Donations to the Camp Spirit Bursary Fund empower equal access to our programs for all campers, regardless of household finances. If you need financial assistance, you can request a bursary during the online-registration process for an immediate fee discount!

All are welcome to help send children to Camp Spirit! Make a donation to the bursary fund - as you're able. 

The Camp Registration Fee Includes: Lunch & Snacks, Camp Spirit t-shirt, and all program and supply costs.
A Summer of Day Camp Ministry 
We offer day camp programming every week of the Camp Spirit summer. Often held in different cities, towns and villages across BC and into the Yukon, one of our goals is to partner with United Church of Canada Communities of Faith to empower community-building between members and neighbours with Camp Spirit's ministry with children, youth, families and young adults.​

Times of Day
A Camp Spirit day usually starts at 9am and usually ends at 3pm, Monday - Friday. Some of our camps are only 4 days long. 

Welcoming You and all Your Spirit!
