Camps
At the Town of Innisfil, we offer a variety of summer camps to keep kids active and social during the summer months. Whether your child is interested in sports, crafts, or nature, we've got something for everyone. This 2023 season, camp registration opens on March 29 for residents and April 5 for non-residents.
Innisfil Discovery Camp | Ages 4-5
Innisfil Discovery Camp is offered weekly from July 4 to September 1 at the Stroud Innisfil Community Centre at 7883 Yonge St. Participants must be 4 years of age by the first day of camp. This unique preschool program is designed to give young campers an opportunity to discover nature, arts, crafts, and cooperative games. This program works well with children who have not yet participated in any structured pre-school program.
Camp Innisfil | Ages 6-12
Camp Innisfil is offered weekly from July 4 to September 1 at the Stroud Innisfil Community Centre at 7883 Yonge St. Camp Innisfil is a combination of indoor and outdoor activities, with daily activities, crafts and games based on a new theme each week.
Outdoor Adventure Camp | Ages 6-12
Outdoor Adventure Camp is offered weekly from July 10 to August 25 at Centennial Park at 2870 7th Line. This camp is an outdoor experience filled with outdoor activities, crafts, and physical distancing games. This camp will use the Centennial Pavilion as "home base".

We're excited to offer a NEW camp at the Cookstown Community Hall & Library at 20 Church St. Two weeks of Cookstown Camp are available:
- July 17 to 21

This camp is a combination of indoor and outdoor experiences, filled with activities, crafts, and memorable moments.
Camp hours
Camp runs weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Drop off is between 8:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. Pick up is between 4 p.m. and 4:45 p.m. If you arrive late for pick up, you will be charged an additional $10 for every 15 minutes that you are late.
Fees
The fee for camp is $179 for Innisfil residents and $214 for non-residents for five days per week. There is one four-day week rate (August 8-11) due to the statutory holiday, which costs $143 for Innisfil residents and $171 for non-residents.
Safe arrival program |
On the first day of camp, each participant will require a parent or guardian to complete Camper Information forms. Campers are signed in and out of camp during drop off and pick up. Only those adults listed in our registration system will be permitted to pick up and drop off campers. Please notify the camp supervisor of any changes in your child’s pick up routine. If your child is not attending camp for any reason, please call 705-436-3710 Ext. 4314 before 9:30 a.m. to inform camp leaders. Camp leaders will call home on a daily basis to confirm absenteeism. |
Medication |
Campers requiring medication at camp must have a signed Medication Release Form on site with both parental and camp supervisor approval. Medication must be stored in original containers only and camp supervisors will keep medication. |
Water bottles and sunscreen |
Each staff member and camper must bring their own individual water bottle and sunscreen, clearly marked with their name. Campers will need to apply their own sunscreen to maintain appropriate physical distancing. |
Financial assistance
We offer a Fee Assistance in Recreation (FAIR) program to help remove financial barriers to participation in recreation programs. If you need financial assistance, check out our FAIR program.
Accessibility
Our camps provide an integrated and inclusive space for all participants. If your child requires assistance, we have inclusive counsellors available to offer support. Please make sure to register early as we have limited space. In the event that there is not an Inclusion Facilitator available to support a camper, then the camper does have the option to provide their own qualified mediator or support worker.
Please contact us at activeinnisfil@innisfil.ca and we will send you a copy of our Accessible Inclusive Recreation (AIR) Information Packages and add you to our mailing list. If you attended camp in the past, you will receive the AIR Information Package in the mail.
Our staff
We carefully select our camp staff based on their past experience, skills, enthusiasm and the ability to work with children. All camp staff have certificates in:
- Standard First Aid and CPR
- HIGH FIVE Principles of Healthy Child Development
- Emergency procedures and safety
- Program planning
Respectful Recreational User Policy
We simply ask that everyone respects each other and staff. Our Respectful Recreational User Policy applies to anyone participating in a Town program or visiting a municipal facility. The policy promotes fair play, good sportsmanship, safety and respect. It outlines what we consider inappropriate behaviour and what consequences that may have, including restricting someone's access to Town facilities and programs.
