Our mission is to connect every youth in Metro Vancouver with the natural environment and to the Metro Vancouver Regional Parks system and surrounding communities, in a hands-on way, to provide life changing experiences.

CTS delivers on our mission by providing accessible weekend overnight camps for free to youth ages 12-18. We also promote youth leadership with our Peer Leader program, allowing youth ages 15-18 to take a central role in the operation and planning of our summer weekend overnight camps, providing them with training session from November-June. The programs goal is to:

  1. Create region-wide opportunities for youth to challenge themselves in leadership, social responsibility and personal development;
  2. Provide an opportunity for youth to connect with their communities through citizen action, environmental stewardship, public service and community education;
  3. Help support and integrate youth into park and community associated activities and purposes.

The only truly happy man is always a fighting optimist. Optimism includes not only altruism but also social responsibility, social courage and objectivity.
