Who are you as an organization?
Rouge Camps is a collection of teacher led day camps and leadership programs run by ambitious teachers and exceptional counsellors. Rouge Camps (Markham, Unionville, Richmond Hill, Maple & Woodbridge) provide campers, ages 4-15, with weeks filled with fun, sport instruction, original themed programming and lifelong memories. Rouge Camps is for athletes and non-athletes alike!
What do you do differently or uniquely well?
"We believe that "whose in charge matters" and that ambitious physical education teachers make the best sports camp directors. Our teacher advantage allows us to access our vast networks of teachers to have top students staff our camp. We are dedicated to equipping our staff comprehensively in a week long staff training conference prior to the first day of camp. We know how to lead our excellent teams of staff to best care for your children, because it's what we do every day! "
Who are your staff and counsellors?
"Our staff are carefully selected high school seniors and university students from our network of teachers. Our staff are diverse and selected for their strong character, desire help kids grow, academic aptitude and sport skill."
What do families need to know about registration?
"We conveniently sell camp by the week. Some locations sell out before the end of April, so hurry, but we now have 5 locations across York Region to meet your needs.
Registration is quick and easy at rougecamps.com."
Summer camp is the highlight of our campers year and crucially important for families. We value your trust and camper safety is always our top priority. In response to the global pandemic we have carefully examined all of our policies and are approaching this summer with heightened vigilance.
We believe that our leadership team of physical education teachers are best situated to deliver a safe, but still robust sports based program for athletes and non-athletes. Please check out our COVID-19 Policy page on our website for our 5-point plan summary and more. Masking was not mandatory during the Summer 2022 and we will follow public health recommendations at the time of camp, but not go beyond them, very much following what occurs in schools across the region.

Rouge Camps is a safe place for young campers to explore their interests, grow in character, develop movement skills and be adventurous. Our exciting programs include over 15 different sports and activities, including camper favourites soccer, dance, basketball, floor hockey and fully themed camp-wide-activities. Our campers love our programs because they offer a variety of different activities through our exploratory sport periods, but also allow our campers to participate in the activities that they love most in our elective periods. Parent's are also happy to hear that we offer fun educational periods twice a week to keep their campers mentally engaged during the summer months. With 12+ years of teaching experience and 16 years of camp experience I have seen the power camp has on a young person's development. In only a week our young campers grow in confidence and become more comfortable in their own skin. We are able to do this effectively, at Rouge Camps, because a network of teachers from around the region refer to us their best students. We have top university and high school seniors who have been chosen for their leadership, strong character and desire to work with children leading our activities. It is our exceptional staff that allow us to deliver on our motto of teaching life through sport and earn ratings of 9/10+ by both campers and their parents. Furthermore, our Camp Directors are all trained teachers and understand that you as parents want to be informed of what your campers are doing at camp. You will thoroughly enjoy our daily recap emails and video's posted to social media throughout the day to keep up to date on all of the fun your camper(s) are having. Register with Rouge Camps this summer to find out what the buzz is about and experience the Rouge Difference for yourself!
