McMaster Department of Athletics & Recreation Camps: March Break & Summer
Preparing for Camps - Everything To Know
Online registration will open late January/early February for March Mania, Sport Fitness School, 1:1 Support @ SFS, Leadership Programs, and most of our Varsity Sport Camps & Clinics. Summer camps will be running from July 2nd - August 23rd.
Under guidance from the Ontario Camps Association (OCA), Hamilton Public Health, and McMaster University, the Department of Athletics & Recreation is planning to hold in-person march break & summer camps on campus. Please note that we will continue to update our plans and policies as we monitor the covid-19 situation and that we will update our camp families if any changes to programming plans occur so we can prepare for a safe summer.
Dear Camp Friends and Families,
Thank you for participating in the Department of Athletics & Recreation Summer Camps Program. We are looking forward to another fun-filled and exciting summer! We are very proud of our experienced and enthusiastic staff, which consists of McMaster University coaches, students, athletes and graduates. Some of our programmes have been running for 30 plus years, providing youth of all ages opportunities to get involved in sport, recreation, learning and most importantly...FUN!
The sections below and each Camp's page contain important information that you need regarding required equipment, daily schedules, busing procedures, extended care service and many other items. Pre-Camp information is emailed out to the primary email address on your camps account one-week prior to your camp session. Additionally we send camp wrap-up emails the Monday following.
