Summer Camp
-
CHANGE Adventure Camp is a week-long day camp designed to equip youth with skills for healthy living in the context of fun and adventure. We will be providing the program for children ages 6-12. Camp begins at 9am (drop off is 8:30-9:00am) and ends at 4pm (pickup time is 4:00 – 4:30 pm).
We have been fortunate enough to partner with the several community sites in Edmonton and Parkland County, who are allowing us to use their buildings as a “hub” for our CHANGE Adventure Camp. These partnerships will allow us to offer in-person camp activities with access to washrooms and an indoor space if the weather is not cooperating.

When you realize that your health and well-being can be affected by your food choices, the connection is extremely powerful.
We are seeing a whole generation who do not know how to cook, eat properly, or be active. Families spend more and more time on devices or in front of screens. We need to ensure all Albertan families have the kind of support they need to create new habits and skills that they can maintain life-long.
Mommy, I love nature, we must be kind to her.
