What is the Mini Explorers Camp?
Led by equally inquisitive staff, this camp will “explore” different topics and themes each day. From eco-exploring our beautiful 13-acre campus, to globe trotting around the world, and venturing to outer space, campers will engage in a wide variety of age-appropriate activities. Each day will explore a different area or topic, and be guided by BHDC’s theme of the week. There will also be time each day devoted to camp-style games and active outdoor play, as well as recreational swimming a couple of times throughout the week.
Camp Guide
Dress Code
All campers should be dressed appropriately for an active Camp Program. We recommend running shoes and comfortable clothing that can get dirty. All Mini Campers should bring at least one change of clothes in case of accidents or dirty clothes requiring a change.
Daily Activities
While each camp has a focus, camp-style games and programming will also be incorporated every day, including daily outdoor activities. Please send sunscreen, a hat and water bottle labelled with your camper’s name to camp each day.
Swimming
Mini Campers will have the opportunity to participate in recreational swimming twice per week. Campers should come prepared with a bathing suit and towel on their swim days (a schedule will be sent to registered families). Please note there is no alternative programming available during swim time. All Mini Campers will be required to wear lifejackets (provided by BHDC) while swimming.
Meals
Lunch and a healthy snack are included each day. Please refer to our camp menu for details. You may want to pack extra snacks or alternatives if your camper may not like the lunch or snack options provided.
