Shadow Lake
Summer Camp
Summer Camp, 2024.
Experience the Magic of Summer at Shadow Lake Centre!
Explore Shadow Lake Centre’s inclusive summer camp in Stouffville for people with an intellectual disability. For 12 unforgettable weeks from June to August, campers enjoy fun, friendship, and new adventures in a safe and supportive environment.
Each week brings a new theme and exciting activities—swimming, boating, hiking, crafts, sports, and campfires—led by caring staff who provide 24-hour support. Every camper is encouraged to be independent, make friends, and celebrate who they are.
From sunrise walks to evening dance parties and talent shows, every day at Shadow Lake is filled with laughter, learning, and memories that last a lifetime.
Join us this summer for a place where everyone belongs and every experience matters.
Because… it’s better at the Lake!
