Description of Camp
From day camps, to week long overnight camps, to online camps and family camps, Easter Seals offers camp options available for all interests, and for all children and adults ages 6-49 years old. Trained counsellors bring out the fun and silly in every activity and event, creating experiences that instill confidence, and memories that last a lifetime. Our goal to provide safe, fun activities in an environment where the focus is on abilities, not disabilities. All of our camp activities are designed to build confidence, independence and peer interaction in a recreational environment.

Our programs can accommodate campers with, but not limited to: Developmental Challenges, Anxiety Disorders, Down Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Cerebral Palsy, Epilepsy/Seizure Disorders.

Info on inclusion of Campers with unique medical, physical or developmental needs.
BC Easter Seals Camps are for children, teens and adults aged 6-49 with physical and/or mental disabilities. Our camps are designed to provide exceptional camping experiences for children with a wide range of abilities and needs. Children whose only diagnosis is Attention Deficit Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or Learning Disabilities are not eligible for our program. However, campers who have been diagnosed with any of the above in addition to other disabilities are eligible for our program.
Those with Chronic Mental Disorders/Psychoses, Emotional Disorders, or individuals whose behaviour could endanger themselves or other participants may not be suitable for the program.
The Easter Seals Camps do not have the facilities to support medically fragile individuals. We can however, support children who require daily medical routines and medication. Camper Applications and camper behaviour is reviewed and assessed throughout the camping season, as a result a camper’s registration requirements may change at any time without notice. The Easter Seals Camping Program reserves the right to refuse a camper’s application. If you have questions about your camper’s eligibility, please get in touch with us at 1-800-818-4483 or camp@eastersealsbcy.ca.
British Columbia Easter Seals Camps have a maximum supervision ratio of three campers for every counsellor. Should a camper’s care needs require one-to-one support the families must provide a Personal Support Worker to accompany the camper to camp.
