Frequently Asked Questions
How do I filter my camp search?
You can filter your camp search by using the drop down boxes in the search camps tab. You can filter your camp search using any number of categories or none at all if you would like to see a list of camps Canada- wide. The categories you can search by are as follows: geographic area, activities, gender, camp type, accessibility, camp name, session dates, and size. Search results are limited to a certain amount displaying per page, so if you would like to expand and see more results per page please click the indicated button at the bottom of your search results.
Where can I find out more information about a specific camp?
At Canadian Adventure we try to provide as much information about each of our camps as we possibly can. Each camp is given a profile that can apply to our search filters helping you find the best camp fit for you. We've also tried, whenever possible, to include links in each camp's profile, so users can access their websites to learn more. If a webpage is not available for that camp, then we've also tried to provide you with a camp specific contact and email, or phone number, so that you can reach out to that camp should you have any more questions.
What do I do if the camp I’m looking for isn’t on Canadian Adventure?
If you are looking for a specific camp that isn't on Canadian Adventure, please let us know! We try to make our database as comprehensive as possible and we would love to know if there is something you were looking for that you couldn't find within our site.
