Camp Descriptions:
Week 1: Journey Down the River – July
6-10 and August 4-7
·
Join an unforgettable journey from the mountains to
the ocean! Campers travel the length of the Fraser River through games and
hand-on activities, from the Rocky Mountains to the estuary. Along the way, we’ll
uncover stories about the land, its history, and why the Fraser River is so
important!

Week
2: River Engineers – July 13-17 and August 10-14

The river is
always brimming with activity! Take a closer look at how people, plants, and
animals shape the river and its ecosystems. Through hands-on building challenges,
we’ll design the ideal river that balances both habitat and human needs!
Week
3: Survival on the Fraser – July 20-24 and August 17-21
·
Put your survival
skills to the test in fun survival-themed challenges across different river
habitats. Campers explore how animals, plants, and people survive and thrive
along the Fraser River. Through games and hands-on activities, we’ll discover
how living things adapt to their environment and navigate changing conditions
throughout the year!
Week
4: River Investigators – July 27-31 and August 24-28

Calling all young
scientists and problem-solvers! Become river detectives as we investigate the
health of the Fraser River. Using real scientific tools and techniques, we’ll

clues reveal about the river’s ecosystem!
