School’s out! Why should your child sit around bored or spend their days gaming, using their phone or watching TV? We know these behaviours contribute to the challenges already facing our children and youth: from obesity and depression, to behavioural and sleep problems. But did you know – studies show that camps can offer many benefits, including improving social skills, creating a sense of belonging and staying active. These skills can have long-lasting positive impacts for campers!

As Vaughan’s largest camp provider (proudly serving the community for over 30 years!), Recreation Services has been providing children and youth a variety (over 80 camps!) of fun and exciting camps that allow them to explore, create, learn and (of course!) play. And through it all, making new friends, building confidence and increasing their independence. Whether it’s for a day, a week or all summer long, our camps are a place where kids can learn and grow in a supportive and safe environment.

Do anything and everything! Be a mermaid, musician, singer or scientist, athlete and artist! Vaughan summer camps for children ages 4-17 are categorized by area of interest: creative, culinary, and performing arts; outdoor adventures; leadership; recreation; sports; water adventures; and, enrichment (STEM-based) camps.
