ACCESSIBLE RECREATION THEIR OPPORTUNITY

CANADIAN TIRE JUMPSTART

Their Opportunity is a grassroots charity in Durham that exists to provide low-income families (total household income of $45, 000 or less) with the means to enroll their children in organized sports and recreation programs. Additionally, within the 3 months of receiving funding, each child is mandated to “pay-it-forward” through their Giveback Program. Their program inspires hope while teaching essential life skills of teamwork and compassion; proving that only one change in a child’s life can create an opportunity for inspiration and change, while further impacting our community. For more information, visit www.theiropportunity.com.

This program helps financially disadvantaged kids in Canada, ages 4 to 18 years, explore a range of sports and recreation options by supporting over 70 different activities.

IN THE EVENT OF ILLNESS AT CAMP

If a camper falls ill while at camp, they will be placed in a quiet room with a staff person and away from the rest of their camp group. The parent/guardian will be contacted to pick up their camper immediately.
