To serve you better Recreation Oak Bay has updated the camp cancellation policy. All weekly camp credits/refunds/ changes must be requested by 9:30am the Friday prior to the start of camp. All daily registration (Skidaddle) camp credits/refunds/changes must be requested at least 72 hours prior to the start of camp. For example: By Friday at 9:00am if daily camp is on Monday starting at 9:00am. What you should know about Camps at Recreation Oak Bay:

Leadership: Camp leaders are selected for their experience, abilities and dedication to provide every camper with a safe, fun summer camp experience. A Safe Place for Children: Campers are fully supervised throughout the day. Camp leaders are trained in First Aid and CPR, have completed a criminal record check and received a minimum of sixteen hours of training. Parents/ guardians are required to sign campers in and out of camp each day and provide current medical and emergency information for their camper. Camp Schedules: For most camps, you will be emailed a schedule and parent information letter the Wednesday before the camp begins. Schedules and the parent letter will indicate items your camper should bring to camp each day. Please note: schedules are subject to change. The First Day of Camp: Please be prepared to stay a few minutes on the first day of camp to complete signin, meet your camper’s leaders and complete any outstanding paperwork. Epi-pens and Severe Allergies: If your child carries an Epi-pen, an Emergency Medical Information Form must be completed before the first day of camp. Forms are available at reception and on the website.

Please refrain from sending “products with nuts” to camp.

Extra Support Needs: If your child is eligible for a support staff through funding by Supported Child Development please contact the Licensed Care Programmer at 250-370-7902 to arrange for support staff prior to registering for a camp. Age Requirements: All full-day camps require campers to be five years old before December 2021 in order to register and registered in Kindergarten.
