Counselors and volunteers are asked to arrive at Ruskoka Camp on Friday, June 22nd after 7:00pm. Friday evening will be for setting up tents, and we will have a social bonfire in the evening. Dinner will not be provided on Fridayt, so please eat on the way or bring your own snacks for Friday evening.
Where:
The workshop will be held at Ruskoka Camp. All counselors will need to bring their own tent, or make arrangements to share a tent. Tents will be set up in front of the camp house. The camp bathroom will be available for use.
What:
This will be a combined Leadership Workshop and Work Weekend. Leadership sessions will start each morning at 7:30am sharp. We will have lectures and roundtable discussions. A number of fun, interactive and team building activities are also planned. After lunch, counselors will be split into teams to complete tasks around camp. After dinner, we will have round table discussions with short videos. Evenings we will enjoy around the bonfire.
