Legacy Wilderness Camp
Learn Wilderness skills!
This new, unique summer camp explores everything from setting up camp and navigating the outdoors to knot tying, basic first aid, and a range of essential backcountry techniques.
Participants develop core life skills such as leadership, teamwork, problem-solving, resilience, communication, and self-confidence, all while experimenting with a new art medium to spark creativity. The camps accommodate two age groups, 6 to 9 years and 10 to 12 years. (Must have completed Kindergarten)
Equipment and leisure buddy support can be provided in cooperation with Whistler Adaptive, to integrate any participant for these camps, with or without modified schedules.
