All our camp staff are trained in Standard First Aid and CPR and our wellness centre is fully stocked. In case of emergency, the hospital in Parry Sound is just 15 minutes away.

Our approach to health is grounded in ensuring the wellness of campers. This means ensuring that important routines, such as putting on sunblock, regular handwashing and brushing teeth every morning and night. These routines are important part of keeping your camper healthy while they are at camp.

We take safety very seriously at camp. In all areas of camp we enforce strict and sensible safety expectations. Our staff are trained to ensure that activities and daily routines are conducted in a safe manner. As well, all Hidden Bay staff receive emergency training to ensure that should the unexpected occur, our staff are able to keep campers safe.

Beyond physical safety, at Hidden Bay we believe it is important to ensure that campers are emotionally safe. Our staff is skilled in creating a safe, supporting and welcoming space for all our campers.

For campers who are trans*, non-binary or gender non-conforming, we want to ensure that camp is a safe space.  We do providing sleeping spaces based on a gender binary, but we ask families to ensure that they identify their child with the gender that they would be the most comfortable staying with.  We also ask all families to share their child’s pronouns to ensure that we are showing everyone the respect of their identity. If you have any questions about how ensure your camper’s safety at camp, please speak to our camp director who can work with your family to ensure a positive and safe camp experience.
