Come enjoy some quality family time in beautiful Muskoka this fall at Camp Pine Crest! Programs will include high ropes, archery, arts and crafts and (optionally) going with us to the annual Bala Santa Claus Parade! Yes, we have a float in the parade, and yes, we'd love for you to join us on it!
Arrival begins at 5:00pm on Friday November 14th with a buffet dinner served between 6:00-7:00pm. Departure from Camp is after Lunch on Sunday November 16th. The weekend includes 3 meals/day & snacks, accommodation in our lodges, and staff-led programming throughout the days and evenings. Mornings will contain age-group activities to provide parents with some time away from their kids and afternoons & evenings will have family programs that you can attend together. Accommodations are in our lodges which are dorm-style buildings with a small sitting/common area and washrooms in the building. Your family will be allocated two rooms in a lodge. Our Lodges are accessible. If you have a specific lodge or lodge-mate request please indicate it at the time of registration. Please note that we can't guarantee that you will get your requested lodge but we will do our best and communicate with you if we aren't able to give your first choice. Lodges will be allocated once the event registration is complete.
