DETAILS:
Do you need to hit the reset button, relax, and get away?
Join us for a weekend of creativity, connection, and community at Family Arts Camp, held at Camp Gilwell. Spend the weekend in a rustic scout camp enjoying arts and crafts, campfire singalongs, silly skits, and hot chocolate around the fire.
A daily buffet of workshops and activities will be offered to attend at your discretion - everything from creative arts to outdoor adventures. Do it all, or simply relax, walk the forest trails, and enjoy the river. There is plenty of space to play, rest, and connect.
Meals include snacks and beverages on Friday evening, three hearty and healthy meals on Saturday, and a Mother’s Day brunch on Sunday. 🌷💜
Accommodation options include limited space in rustic bunkhouse cabins (bring your own sleeping gear), as well as plenty of beautiful campsites for tents, vans, or RVs. ⛺️
As this event takes place at a Scouts Canada facility, alcohol and drugs are not permitted on site.
SPECIAL MOTHER’S DAY EVENT:
We’re excited to welcome internationally renowned entertainer
🌟FRED PENNER 🌟
