We have 70 Squirrels per week in groups of 10. The ratio is 1:5.
The goals of the Squirrel program are the following:
- To provide a program that promotes exploration of the natural world through creative and dramatic play.
- To provide a program that encourages the development of the conflict management, sharing, responsibility, judgment skills and the use of positive words.
Daily adventures will take them to the Leprechaun National Forest, the Hobbit and Fairy Village in the trees, the Magical Cedar Grove, the Mystical Marsh and the ever popular Mud Pit! Each week the games, activities and crafts revolve around a different magical theme. Squirrels will also have a chance to go for a Voyageur canoe ride!
They will visit the waterfront for their daily swim lesson. Lessons take place in our supervised waterfront area and/or in our three foot deep above ground swimming pool, weather permitting. Depending on the campers swimming ability they may wear a Personal Flotation Device (PFD).
Staff assist campers in applying insect repellant before hikes into the forest and encourage long pants and shirts.
