McKenzie Lake Community Associations runs 8 themed weeks of fun filled and action packed Summer Camps. The camps run from 9am-4pm.

Before and after care is available for an additional charge of $50/week on top of the camp.  Kids who pay the fee 7am and children must be picked up by 5:30pm. 

Weekly camp fees are $225. 

Camp week 5 fees are $180 due to the camp being closed on Monday, August 1.

You may also choose to provide a $25 non-refundable fee to hold a spot for you in each camp week.  This will guarantee you a place in the camp and allow you to pay for camps in seperate payments, rather than all at once.  The $25 applied to each week as a place holder will go toward the registration of each particular week.

Age accepted: Children must be going into grade 1 for September 2022 with the age limit up to children going into Grade 6 for Sept 2022.
