Our Camps

Camp Ten Oaks

Camp Ten Oaks a week-long sleep-away camp for children and youth ages 8-17 from 2SLGBTQ+ identities, families, and communities. The program first opened its doors in August 2005. It runs for two sessions each summer, welcoming nearly 200 campers.

Camp Lifting Leaves

Camp Lifting Leaves is a partner project of the Ten Oaks Project and child welfare agencies across Ontario. We have seen a growing need for connection and community building amongst children and youth ages 8-21 from 2SLGBTQ+ communities who are in and out of care, and are thrilled to offer a camp just for them!

Feedback Reports & Evaluations

Every year, we solicit and receive feedback through various avenues during and after our programs from our camper families and volunteer staff. The year-end feedback report is based on all the feedback we received through the camp evaluation forms filled out by our camper families and volunteer staff. We are sharing these reports with our communities as part of our commitment to continual learning and to ensure transparency in our programming development and improvement.
