Another week of adventure has flown by! 🌿✨

Week 3 was all about exploring, creating, and working together. Campers discovered new corners of Edmonton on two wheels, built confidence while canoeing, got creative with hands-on crafts, and enjoyed exciting River Valley trips throughout the week. Back at camp, teamwork took center stage during lively games like Capture the Flag, while plenty of time in nature gave everyone a chance to play, explore, and make lasting memories.
