Great Moose Adventures.

Summer Day Camp

Weekly day-camp sessions mix traditional camp activity — hiking, swimming, canoeing, archery, drama, sports, campfires — with inquiry-based projects (building challenges, scientific investigations, animal and plant study). Bus pickup runs from the Bracebridge Rotary Club at 131 Wellington St and the Gravenhurst lot at 290 First St N. Older campers can progress through the LIT (12–13, paid) and CIT (14–15, volunteer-to-work) leadership stream.

$360 per full week, $288 for short week (Session 6 only), no HST; transportation $60 per full week or $48 per short week

Canoe Trips

A 5-day Monday-to-Friday canoe trip into Algonquin Park, run with a 3 guides : 6 campers ratio. Routes are built around bigger lakes and fewer portages, with campers usually staying at one site for two nights. Days mix paddling and portaging with swimming, rock jumping, canoe play, card games, and capture games. Menu accommodates dietary requirements and allergies; full kit and route planning are provided.
