Where is Wildside?

 

• Campers start their Wildside adventure on the main Camp Imadene property at the canoe beach. From there they will be taken by boat across the lake to the Wildside property where they will spend the remainder of their time with us. Parents/guardians will enjoy a short boat ride with their child to complete the sign in process at Wildside.

 

Drop Off and Pick Up Times

 

• Wildside drop off is at 4pm on the day of registration which is a Sunday.

 

• Wildside pick up is at 2pm on the last day which is a Friday (except for Wild 6 which ends on a Thursday).

 

• Location: Drop off and Pick up are at the main Camp Imadene property, at the "Canoe Beach".

 

• Parents will sign their child in at the mess hall at Wildside. We will have a boat running between Wildside and the canoe beach throughout the camper intake process. For pick up, campers will be brought back by boat to meet their parent/guardian at the canoe beach at the end of each week.

 

Where will my camper sleep?

 

• Wildside is a wilderness camp, so campers will be sleeping in large canvas tent cabins.

 

Can we bring electronics (phones, ipods, cameras etc) to Wildside?

 

• The Wildside property has limited access to power with no access point available for camper use. With that in mind we ask that campers please leave all electronics at home.

 

Will there be any photos made available of my time at Wildside?

 

• Yes! Our staff team will take photos throughout the week  that will be made available to campers after their week at WildSide.

 

Do Wildside campers help in the kitchen?

 

• Yes! At Wildside we live together in community which includes helping out around camp. Each camper has the opportunity to help with both food prep and cleanup around meals.
