City of Morden – Summer Camp 2025 – Guide

Welcome to the City of Morden Summer Camps! We are excited to spend our Summer with you!

Day camps keep kids active, enable them to make new friends and acquire valuable skills. All camps will be filled with various games, creative & physical activities and tons of fun!

What to Bring

• Packed lunch and snacks for two lunch breaks (nut-free)
• Refillable water bottle
• Running shoes, wear clothing you can be active in & weather appropriate outerwear
• Sunscreen
• Bathing suit (for lake days or as noted ahead of time)

Hours & Location

Camp programming runs from 9am-4pm. Flexible drop-off and pick-up times are available before and after camp. Campers will be supervised during this time.  A parent/guardian is required to sign the child in & out unless special circumstances have been made.

• Drop-Off: Between 8-9am
• Pick-Up: Between 4-5pm

All camps run out of the Access Event Centre (111-D Gilmour Street, Morden, MB) where drop-off & pick-up will take place. Occasionally we have camp off-site at our lake location (Lake Minnewasta – 100 Colert Road, Morden, MB) For camp days held at the lake, drop-off & pick-up will be there. All lake days are noted in the registration notes at time of booking, and a reminder will be sent out closer to the date.

Late Pick-up Policy

We expect that all children are picked up on time, respecting our staff’s work schedules and personal commitments. Late pick-ups will result in additional charges of $2/minute per child to be paid prior to attending the next day of camp and/or removal from the program for ongoing circumstances.

If a child is not picked up by closing time, staff will contact parents/guardians and/or emergency contacts. If after 30 minutes staff are unable to contact parents/guardians or emergency contacts, staff will call Child & Family Services, who will take your child into care until you can be located.

• Requested 72 hours or less prior to the start of the program: No refunds will be given.

Behavioural Policy & Expectations

Summer Camp is a fun and engaging way for a child to spend their summer break. We are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for all campers, staff, and volunteers. To ensure that everyone has a positive experience, we have established the following behaviour policy.

1.     Respect: Campers are expected to treat everyone with respect, including themselves, fellow campers, staff members, and instructors. This includes using kind words, listening attentively when others are speaking, listening to the leaders’ instructions and respecting personal space. We have a zero-tolerance policy for violent and aggressive behaviour.

2.     Inclusion & Communication: Providing a comfortable, safe and inclusive environment for all campers and staff members is very important to us. Campers are encouraged to communicate openly with staff members about successes and concerns.

3.     Co-operation: Campers are encouraged to co-operate with each other and participate in camp activities. Co-operation includes working together as a team, sharing resources, and supporting each other’s efforts. We encourage campers to participate in all games and other camp activities.

4.     Honesty & Responsibility: Campers are encouraged to be honest in their interactions with staff & fellow campers and take responsibility for their actions and make amends when necessary.
