Nursing at Camp
There always will be the time to treat these campers with the care and compassion that all these kids deserve whether the kid fell off their bike and hit their head or they are trying to get out of going to bed at bed time.
the great impact of a little effort
Over the course of my career as a counsellor I reflected often on the subtle efforts put in by my counsellors from when I was a camper. These little things that can dress up something simple like a bedtime story or arts and crafts into the regaling of ancient legends or an exclusive once in a lifetime experience.
Faith at Boys’ Camp
Our faith is the core of our Camp's identity. Although not all who come to us are Catholic, as we welcome a diverse group of staff from many backgrounds and beliefs, the core teachings of brotherhood, solidarity, empathy, and love transcend those differences and are universally essential in guiding our youth.
A Tour of camp ozanam
When the Society purchased the property in South River, ON in 2016, it wasn't simply a move, it was a mission. We finally had a permanent home again to reset our roots and define our camp. A chance to build a legacy, and a true sense of belonging. In this post, I'd like to give you a tour of the home we’ve worked so hard to grow and solidify.
