McKenzie Lake Community Association runs 8 themed weeks of fun filled and action packed Summer Camps. The camps run from 9am-4pm.
Before and after care is available for an additional charge of $50/week on top of the camp fee. Before and after care is available from 7am - 5:30pm.
Weekly camp fees are $225.
Camp week 1 and 6 fees are $180 due to the camp being closed on Monday, July 1 and Monday, August 4.
You may also choose to provide a $25 non-refundable fee to hold a spot for you in each camp week. This will guarantee you a place in the camp and allow you to pay for camps in separate payments, rather than all at once. The $25 applied to each week as a place holder will go towards the registration of each particular week.
