Camps available for March Break 2024

Georgetown March Break Camp

Open to all children born 2011-2020. Children will be divided into small squads with children of similar ages. Children will enjoy classic camp games, use their imagination through creative activities, discover new learnings with science experiments, and explore during outdoor play. All participants will enjoy some fun programming with special guests throughout the week. Also, children registered in Georgetown who are 7-12 years old will swim three times during the week. NOTE: Participants must be 4 years old at the start of camp.

Age requirements

Our camp age requirements are in accordance with the Province of Ontario's Child Care and Early Years Act. Only children who are 4 years of age at the start of program will be permitted to participate in any camp program.

Children with special needs or health conditions

The Town of Halton Hills strives to provide inclusive camp opportunities for those who have special needs. This includes anyone with a physical or developmental disability either congenital or resulting from an injury or illness who may require interpretive services, mobility and adaptive equipment needs and individualized support. 

A person may require inclusion support if they: 

• Require or receive additional support in a school setting 

• Require support for their safety or the safety of others 

• Require extra support at home for basic care such as feeding or toileting 

• Are currently associated with a support agency or program 

• Have a safety plan in place with their educational institution 

If you require inclusion support:

Participants who require inclusion support for camp programs are required to register for “March Break Inclusion Support – Play All Day”. There is a separate course code for the week of inclusion support. There is no fee to register for the inclusion support. 

Registration for inclusion support will close two weeks in advance of the programs start date (e.g., Registration will close on February 26  for camp starting on March 11). This time period allows the Town to ensure staff are trained appropriately and prepared to welcome the participant into our programs.

• Those who require inclusion support do NOT need to register for a space within the actual camp program. 

• The Town of Halton Hills sees parents/caregivers as partners and wants to work closely with each family to ensure we are properly prepared to welcome the child into our programs. The Recreation Coordinator will directly contact parents/caregivers to arrange a time to complete the intake process. During the meeting parents/caregivers will be asked to provide details about the child’s needs (e.g., successful strategies, common triggers). We want to know as much as we can about the camper so that the Town can offer the best possible support. 

• Information provided during the intake process is confidential and will only be provided to staff working directly with the participant in a program.  

• The Recreation Coordinator will ensure the program is a suitable fit, review guidelines and let parents/caregivers know what camp will look like this summer. 

• Once the intake process has been completed, the participant will be registered within the camp program accordingly. At this time, parents/caregivers will be contacted for payment.
