McMaster Department of Athletics & Recreation Camps: March Break & Summer
Preparing for Camps - Everything To Know
At this time, our plan is to open online registration for March Mania, Sport Fitness School, 1:1 Support @ SFS, Leadership Programs, and Varsity Sport Camps & Clinics in February. Summer camps will be running from July 4th - August 26th.
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.
