Ontario, Canada Summer Camps Shape Youths Social, Physical and Mental Foundation

(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 21, 2006 ) Cedar Park, Texas -- Ontario’s famous Algonquin Provincial Park is home to a number of first-rate children’s camps. Some of these Ontario, Canada children’s camps have offered the summer camp experience for almost one hundred years, and camps that are steeped in history and tradition have been proven to be especially popular, in particular when it is located within an area like Algonquin Park that is renowned throughout the world as one of Canada’s wilderness treasures. However, some Canadian children summer camps have stepped above others by shaping youths’ social, physical, and mental foundations. As a result, years later, the camper desires to give that same wonderful experience to their own children and later to their children’s children. That is the ultimate Algonquin camp experience that many Ontario summer camps strive to offer.Due to the positive experience and solid foundation that was built when they were younger, many campers return year after year and continue on long after they are too old to be regular campers as they return to camp as counsellors in training (C.I.T.s) and eventually full-fledge camp counsellors. They are not ready to give up experiencing the joys of summer camp just because they are too old to be regular campers and believe that passing on the strength and developing a strong foundation is essential. Kim Smith, Owner and Director of Camp Tanamakoon (http://www.tanamakoon), a very popular girl’s summer camp in Algonquin Park that was established in 1925, states that, “most of our counsellors are former campers themselves and they return every year as role models for the children. Camp Tanamakoon is dedicated to the highest standards and preserves the traditional camp values while promoting the self-esteem of the young campers. Our goal is to make each camper feel she is part of the Tanamakoon family and will want to return every year to the camp which provides life-long experience for the campers.”Children’s summer camps are as popular as ever and not just with families that traditionally have made Ontario summer camps a part of their lives. In today’s society, it is the norm to have both parents working. Sending one’s child to summer camp sometimes is seen as the ultimate childcare solution. The child is given a terrific social and stimulating educational experience away from the city, and the parent does not have to scramble to find suitable summer childcare.Despite the tremendous popularity of Algonquin Provincial Park summer camps which are seen as the ultimate Ontario camp experience, it is unlikely that any new camps will be built in the future. As a result, there will be limited availability in the established camps; thus, diminishing the outreach that summer camps in Ontario have on enriching the lives and building a strong social, physical, and mental foundation.In an effort to give camp operators a chance to showcase all the unique features and the various advantages their camp has to offer, summer camp fairs have become quite popular in the last few years. In addition to providing the camp operators many benefits, camp fairs also give consumers an opportunity to comparison shop. With a number of camp representatives in one place, parents are offered a wealth of information that will help them make a wise decision regarding the camp that is the most suitable for their child. Due to the popularity and wide array of experiences that Canadian summer camps offer, booking early is essential to secure a spot in one of the better Ontario summer camps. Still, with so many campers choosing to return to camp year after year, finding a space in an Algonquin camp for a new camper may prove very difficult indeed, but definitely worth the trouble.Camp Tanamakoon was established in 1925, and girls return year after year to develop camp skills right in Ontario’s pristine Algonquin Park. Parents can be comforted with the knowledge that Camp Tanamakoon prides itself on staffing with Counsellors that are responsible, energetic, fun loving and exhibiting outstanding leadership skills.
