I was 14 when I first went to Tim Hortons camp and I had a horrible experience due to my leaders that were there. I went to Tim Hortons camp via a social worker who recommended it so I went for summer for a couple of days and everything was fine at first but then many of “cabin “ mates where trouble makers and would try to stay up late. I was getting upset so I told them I wanted to go to bed and as I said that my monitor/ leader ( his nickname was Verne ) came in because of the noise everyone else was making and he heard my voice thinking it was me making all this noise. He brought me outside into the hallway outside of the room and gave me a 15-20 time out where I…

When I had 13 years of age, we went on a trip to Tim Horton's Camp here, we would be staying for three days, and two nights. Everything seems great, but I have to say, there was an issue with the food. I EXPLICITLY said I'm a vegetarian, and then half the time vegetarian had NO OPTIONS! I was forced to eat plain rice with no flavour, which caused me to CHOKE! (Years later, I found out I'd been suffering from ARFID from the tender age of three!) I had a horrible food experience, as I had no food options! I went on the same trip when I had 14 years, and (simply because one of the teachers - aka my Grade 9 Maths teacher - is vegan) they actually had OPTIONS for vegetarians…

I attended this camp about 24 years ago and even though I was extremely home sick and wanting to go home the whole time lol I look back and I'm so incredibly grateful for the opportunity and the memories are absolutely unforgettable!
I love showing my children all the photos and telling them about all the cool, fun and exciting activities we did! I can still remember the smell of our cabin and breakfast in the dining room. My only complaint would have to be the 'egg water' that we had to shower with but would I want it any other way? Heck no!
Thanks for the amazing experience!Karen G.August 2024
this is a great place for kids. The summer camp has the ability (with the help of counselors and all other staff) to change your childs life. It helps them develop confidence, respect, and belief in themselves.
I would like to say I am not sure why you removed the younger program. (I believe it was 10 - 12 grade 5)
That age is the absolute perfect time and age to really reach these kids. I know it changed my daughter's life completely for the better. She came home from this camp with more confidence and belief in herself.
It really did help bring to a place where she was able to be herself in every way. And didn't every worry about what other people thought about her.

Amazing place. Everything from the location to the people to the food were nothing short of amazing. Working at this camp for a summer was one of the most amazing times I have ever had. Sure there were some mornings where you didn't want to wake up to be with kids or eat the same food you had on Wednesday last week, but you push through that and realize just how amazing it is anyway. I met some of the most amazing kids, co-workers and people in general. People say that camp will change you, make you a better person, and that's exactly what this camp has done to me as well as many other people.
