Opportunity Description:

Camp Goodtimes provides children and youth affected by cancer and their families with an
unforgettable summer camp experience in a medically supervised, safe, and supportive environment. We’ve been friendship-building and memory-making in British Columbia since 1985 and work with nearly 500 campers each summer through our kids, family, and youth camps. The past two years we have done a combination of virtual programs and modified in-person family programs to support our community during this unusual time. We are excited to be planning to go back to camp for in person overnight kids, youth, and family programs. To protect the health, safety and wellbeing of our campers and camp community remains our top priority. As the covid-19 pandemic continues to evolve, the safety plan has not been finalized. The team is working in collaboration with medical partners to establish plans around screening, testing and capacities. All volunteers on-site must be vaccinated against COVID-19.
We are proud to host Camp Goodtimes at two facilities throughout the summer. The first five weeks take place at the UBC Malcolm Knapp Research Forest’s stunning Loon Lake Retreat Centre near Maple Ridge, BC and our last two weeks of programming take place at Camp Pringle on the shores of Shawnigan Lake on Vancouver Island.
We believe that time spent at camp allows kids to just be kids, away from their diagnosis. We are proud to provide provide programming that gives joy, confidence, support and hope for children with cancer and their families.
