We’re asking parents why they send their kids to Camp Chief Hector YMCA.
Here’s what Shannon said:
“I’ve been sending my two happy campers to YMCA’s Camp Chief Hector for four years- since they were old enough to go! I have fond memories of CCH from when I was young so I couldn’t wait till they could go too. Every day at CCH is a fun adventure, no matter the weather! I love that they learn about nature and First Nation’s culture in a nondenominational environment. The camp councilors are so enthusiastic and the kids just adore them. Everything is at CCH is well run- all the activities, the crafts, the meals, the outtrips and of course, grand council.
“We camp as a family but a week at Camp Chief Hector builds a sense of independence and self confidence that only comes from being away from home.
“We are grateful to have this wonderful camp so near to us and we plan to send our girls for as many years as possible. The eldest is already asking for a two week stay next summer!”
