Why Camp McDougall?
What if summer could change a child’s life?
At Camp McDougall, it does.
For generations, campers have come here to disconnect from screens… and reconnect with what matters.
Friendship. Confidence. Adventure. Belonging.
1 Week. No Parents. ALL Growth.
This isn’t just a break from home…
It’s where kids:
-
- Try new things
- Build real independence
- Laugh a lot
- And discover who they really are
The best part?
They don’t even realize how much they’re growing while they’re having fun.
Why Parents Choose Camp McDougall
Because you want more than just “something to do” this summer… right?
You want your child to:
-
- Build confidence through hands-on experiences
- Learn new skills in a safe, supportive environment
- Create real friendships (not just screen-time ones)
- Spend time outdoors being active, curious, and free
- Feel like they belong
And that’s exactly what happens here.
What Campers Actually Do All Day
Short answer?
A LOT.
Campers dive into:
-
- Swimming, canoeing, and waterfront fun
- Campfires, songs, and stories under the stars
- Creative arts and hands-on activities
- Outdoor adventures, games, and team challenges
- Classic camp moments they’ll never forget
Messy? Sometimes.
Fun? Always.
A Day at Camp McDougall
Every day has a rhythm…
-
- Mornings: Cabin time + building friendships
- Afternoons: Activities, exploration, and adventure
- Evenings: Whole-camp events that bring everyone together
Structured enough to feel safe.
Flexible enough to feel like freedom.
What Makes Camp McDougall Different?
It’s not just the activities.
It’s the community.
We’re intentionally built so every camper:
-
- Is known
- Is included
- And feels like they matter
Because when kids feel safe…
They grow.
What They Take Home
It’s not just memories.
It’s:
- Confidence
- Independence
- Lifelong friendships
- And stories they’ll tell for years
Everything you want for your child… lives on the other side of camp.
We strive to be the premier Christian camp in Northern Ontario!
