  • Summary Profile

    Camp Cherith - Ontario answered our questions

    Who are you as an organization?

    Camp Cherith’s rich and diverse outdoor activities help campers aged 6 – 17 gain self confidence, develop leadership skills and grow socially and spiritually. Our Christian environment is an intentional integration of Biblical values and activity. Customized programs are taught by positive role models in a small group fun atmosphere.

    • Special needs: Not available
    • Religious affiliation: Christian

    What do you do differently or uniquely well?

    "We are an outdoor skill based camp that integrates God and Biblical values into every part of the day. Your child will come home having experienced God in a unique way and will come home having tried and learned a new skill for them; whether it be archery, canoeing, crafting, drama, riflery, kayaking and so much more."

    Who are your staff and counsellors?

    "The majority of our staff have taken our 5 week in-depth, hands on, leadership training program. Our staff range from ages 17-84 and many have grown up at camp as campers and so they know camp and love camp and have the desire to share the gospel with our campers. Our staff put the campers first and will build relationships with your child over the week they are there. "

    What do families need to know about registration?

    "You can apply online at www.campcherith.ca click the register button in the top right corner and then follow the prompts to set up an account. Registration opens November 15th with an early bird discount from Nov 15-Dec 15. Many of our programs fill fast and so registering early is always best. If your child is going into grade 10 in the fall and you're looking for a great leadership program that will transfer to any job register them for our CILT program. You must take CILT 1 before taking CILT 2. If you have registration questions you can email Donna at [email protected] or call her at 705-733-2267"

  • Insider Reviews & Perspectives

    The Our Kids review of Camp Cherith - Ontario

    our take

    Kayaking, horseback riding, archery—these are just some of the adventures kids will get at Camp Cherith. And they do this all while gaining much-needed self confidence, leadership skills, empathy and learning about faith. Everything they do at Camp Cherith is integrated into the Christian faith, and they’ve been doing it for almost 70 years! All of the staff are enthusiastic and positive role models who don’t feel like they are doing a job—they truly enjoy each day at camp. Staff, as well as campers are transformed by their time at Camp Cherith. Their motto is “No child left inside”, and that is truly espoused in all of the fun outdoor activities that surely leave kids exhausted and content at the end of the day. There are a variety of programs available, including girls only and co-ed camps, as well as father-son and mother-daughter bonding camps that are wildly popular.

    Three Things: Camp Cherith - Ontario
    Hear the three things that Our Kids’ editors see when they look at Camp Cherith - Ontario

    Review(s) of Camp Cherith - Ontario

    Steve (Alum) — Mr.

    I had the best time ever at camp serving as a cabin leader. Not only was I able to grow spiritually by spending more time with God, I also learned to love the kids in my cabins. They really taught me a lot. A lot of the questions they asked me really provoked my thoughts and made me think. I will definitely treasure that precious month I spent in camp. School is really tiring and I really miss camp, I am in my senior year and I will be graduating this year. Camp Cherith truly is a great place for campers and staff to develop their private relationships with God. I would like to return for about 1 to 3 weeks next summer if you will accept me as a cabin leader again. Sincerely yours, Stev ... Read More

    • Campers In Leadership Training

      “I can unquestionably say that camp has single handedly affected me the most. The skills, friends and experiences I gained at camp I will carry throughout my entire life.”

    • Friendly Staff

      “Thank you so much for helping nurture our son and ground his faith in Christ.”

    • What is Important?
      "Camp Cherith, you both, and the many, many incredible people that have spent their summers there, have been responsible for changing all three of our children's lives for eternity. There are so few leaders, to our knowledge, that are willing to lead with uncompromisingly high standards. From what we hear from our boys you are just such leaders. We thank God for you."
    • Need I say More?
      "When we picked up our daughter she had a smile from ear to ear, stories to share and songs to sing. She asked me if she could come back again. I think that explains it all since this was her first experience at a sleepover camp."
    • Thank you
      "Not only was my daughter happy at camp again, I was pleased with how each and every question I asked was quickly and adequately answered. The staff are consistently 'kid friendly', positive and seem to love their service at camp."
