Programs For
Younger Campers
Pre-Wee Program
1 Day and Weekend sessions for campers ages 6-9
Our Pre-Wee program is an ideal way to introduce your child to the magic of Camp White Pine.
A child’s first experience at camp should be warm, welcoming and full of fun. This will ensure the foundation for successful camp experiences for many years to come. Our mature, caring counsellors, who are trained to work with this age group, create a well-rounded, jam-packed camp adventure. In addition, each camper has a CIT “big buddy” who is with them for their entire stay at camp.
Campers participate in a wide variety of camp activities that capture the White Pine spirit.
At the end of the trip, your child will arrive home with exciting stories to share of their first experience at camp.
Kiwi Program
2 weeks, 1 month and full season for campers ages 7-9
From the moment the campers get off the bus, the energy of the “mighty” Kiwi section welcomes them. Kiwi counsellors know how important the adjustment to camp is at this age. Most of these campers have never experienced sleep-over camp before and come to camp not knowing anyone. We keep the cabin groups and section small to ensure individual attention to each camper. The Kiwis quickly become a close-knit family.
Through warm, nurturing counsellors and cabin group support, our Kiwi campers accomplish many “firsts.” Whether its getting up on skis, making a bookshelf in woodworking or making new friends, the smiles on their faces are evidence of their new-found successes and growing independence.
Adam and Dana spend time getting to know each Kiwi camper. We take pride in the special care given to this age group. Each Kiwi cabin typically has four or five staff, allowing for excellent supervision. Campers are well looked after and each child’s needs and interests are addressed.
The Kiwi summer brings new friends, unforgettable experiences and personal growth. When your child returns home you will notice a difference.
