2017 camp guide tell us more!
We asked our fantastic Day Camp advertisers to share what makes their camps special! Check out this advice and info to help you select the best camp for your little one.
Katy Slany of The Imagination Project What makes families choose your camp? Families will choose us because of our attention to growing and nurturing each individual student who comes to our program. It’s so important for us to take time getting to know each child. We also offer a complete learning experience that continues beyond the end of the program and I think that is very special. Beyond these two things, it’s also really wonderful for kids and their parents to know they are helping a child to get support and education who otherwise wouldn’t have access to it.
TumbleTown and Gym-venture Days Camps What sets your camp apart and makes it unique? TumbleTown Gymventure Days are off-the-charts fun where kids can get their flips and tricks in while developing their gymnastics skills and physical abilities. Centrally located in Kitsilano, we offer both half and full day options for children 3-8 years old. Our gymnastics-based Gym-venture days offer children a positive and encouraging environment, and provide the opportunity to develop fundamental movement skills. And gymnastics teaches your child developmental skills to be successful in other sports and stay active for life.
Jump Gymnastics What sets your camp apart and makes it unique? Our low-ratio camps are meticulously planned to be as high quality as we can make them! Gymnastics and developing physical literacy may be the focus of our camps, but everything from our morning centres activities to our creative, processdriven crafts are designed to be educational, develop fine motor skills, and of course be super fun!

Jr. Zoologist Summer Camp at the Greater Vancouver Zoo
What is the most popular activity at your camp? Funzone camps are always popular because they are offered all over Surrey. They are affordable and have a range of activities to meet the developmental needs of children aged six to 12. Our pre-teen road trip and leadership camps are also favourites!
What sets your camp apart and makes it unique? The Greater Vancouver Zoo is a CAZA accredited facility, which a variety of animals call home. Our camp allows children to get up close and personal with the animals while learning about their biology and wildlife conservation.
