FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about ONdronecamp!

How many campers are there?

There are a maximum of 16 campers each week.

What is the ratio of counsellors to campers?

Our usual ratio is 1:4, or one counsellor per four students. There are four counsellors, including a team leader, and two secondary/post-secondary students.

At least one first aid/CPR certified counsellor is available at all times. All counsellors have a recent Vulnerable Sector Check (VSC) within the previous 12 months.

Do I need to pack a lunch for my child(ren)?

Yes, you must pack a lunch and snacks for your child or children. We have a strict “no nuts” policy at our camp. We have a refrigerator and microwave available. However, each Friday, we will throw a pizza party and bringing a lunch is optional.

What if my child(ren) has/have special needs or require accommodation?

We are happy to work with your child or children if you help us understand what their needs are and how we can accommodate them. We want camp to be a fun and happy experience for every child who attends!

If they require access to prescription medication, such as carrying an epi-pen or inhaler, they can usually keep this with them during camp, or we can store these in a readily available location.

Please note our camp location is, unfortunately, not wheelchair accessible and so this is one need that we cannot yet accommodate. While we hope to offer an accessible location in the future, this will not be the case for our 2024 camps.

Is Before/After Care Available?

Yes! For a small additional charge for the week, there is before care available from 8:00am until 9:00am, and from 4:00pm until 5:00pm.
