Summer Camp Program
Good times, new friends, rewarding experiences and challenges and more are to be discovered at residential summer camp in the Laurentians.  Our Summer Camp Program is beginning its eleventh year of operation. Over 3000 children enjoyed our sponsorship through generous donors.  Professionals from the CLSC's, the schools and the parents see the positive results-happier children who return to their homes and schools renewed and refreshed, eager for what lies ahead.  The residential camping experience is unique in that it teaches independence and challenges campers to go beyond their limits in a structured and supervised environment.

AJ's Experience at Summer Camp:
"My experience with summer camp was great. I never went away before and was so nervouse that I broke out in rash on my face. I sat in the parking lot waiting to get loaded on the bus and all these people where sworming around me. They we introducing themselves and giving me high fives and playing loud music, and I knew I was going to have a great 10 days."

Mother of AJ:
"Trails End camp and generations foundations offered my son AJ an amazing experience. He tells me the food was great, the beds were really comfy and the adventures where perfect for his first time away. He wants to back next year. Thank you to everyone who made it possible for all those kids to get to profit from a summer that they may not have otherwise been able to experience. My son came home a changed kid with new confidence in himself that I have never seen."

Children are referred to us by the local CLSC or school they attend.  In many cases, these children would not otherwise have this opportunity!
