Day Camp

Easter Seals NL Summer Day Camp is an inclusive camp for participants with varying disabilities. Our camp program activities are designed for school-age children. All camp programs are adapted to fit and meet the needs of all campers to have an environment to play, learn and grow together!

Easter Seals NL Summer Day Camp offers a low Camper-to-Counsellor ratio environment for people of all disabilities to enjoy the camp experience. Although our ratio is low, we do not offer 1:1 support. Some campers do attend with 1:1 support provided by the family to enhance their camp experience.

Easter Seals NL Summer Day Camp has a routine daily structure to accommodate the needs of all our campers. Each week has a theme that activities will be designed within. There will be special guests, themed dress-up dates, and activities!

Day Camp will be offered during the 8 weeks of July and August, at Easter Seals, 206 Mt. Scio Road.

2024 Summer Day Camp registration is now open for the Waitlist only.

Summer Day Camp registration process

**Please review the entire ESNL Summer Day Camp registration process before completing your registration.

The registration steps are as follows:

  1. All participants must complete an ACTIVE Registration. This serves as an
    expression of interest only for Summer Day Camp. Registration will
    close on May 15th at 12:00 p.m. noon. Participants can still be added to
    the waitlist after this time and will be considered if space becomes
    available.
  2. On May 16th, registrants will receive an email detailing the Next Steps.
    Registrants must complete the online form provided in the email and
    answer all questions in full.

    • An incomplete registration form will not be accepted as all
      information asked is required to ensure the best care for all
      participants.
    • Campers are accepted based on our Summer Camp Guidelines.
    • If one-on-one support is requested by ESNL, registration is not
      confirmed until confirmation of a one-on-one support worker is
      provided.
    • Payment will not be required until you receive confirmation of registration from ESNL.
  3. Completing an ACTIVE registration does not secure your spot for day camp. Once the Google form provided in the ‘Next Steps’ email is completed and reviewed by a Recreation Team Member, a Summer Day Camp confirmation email will be sent out to accepted participants.
