Interview with the Director of City of Toronto Camps
Keith Storey, City of Toronto Camps: Director Interview
View transcriptTranscript of our interview with Keith, City of Toronto Camps: Director Interview
Who are you and whom do you represent?
My name is Keith Storey, and I'm the Supervisor Camp Lead in the Recreation Division with the City of Toronto. The City is the largest provider of recreation programs for people of all ages, skill levels, and interests. CampTO is especially important to me as I started my career in public service over 30 years ago as a camp counselor, and I still say it was my favorite job ever.
What is unique about your camp?
We offer a range of camp programs to fit the needs and abilities of our campers. CampTO has indoor and outdoor games, arts and crafts, sports, and more. CampTO Explore builds on that with extras like with workshops, local trips, or visits from a special guest. CampTO Plus focuses on specific interests like visual or performing arts, sports, science, nature, cooking, and more.
All of our programs provide fun, full-day experiences that include water play or swim days, depending on the location. We also offer adapted and inclusive versions of CampTO Explorer and CampTO Plus for those needing extra support. Programs are available for different age groups: Early Years (4–5), Child (6–12), and Youth (13–16). You can find the full list at toronto.ca/campto.
What type of child is successful at your camps?
We offer camps in every neighborhood across Toronto because we know each child has unique needs. With a variety of camps, age groups, interests, and ability levels, our goal is to help every child find success at CampTO.
Is the camp schedule structured or more relaxed?
All our camps run from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. CampTO and CampTO Explore are a bit more flexible, while CampTO Plus offers more structure with 2-3 hours of specialized instruction each day. We also provide extended hours for before and after supervised care, offering extra flexibility for parents and caregivers.
How do your staff deal with behavioural issues?
All of our staff are trained to recognize and work with children and youth at different developmental stages, including strategies for conflict resolution, customer experience, and inclusive programming. They are also equipped to de-escalate situations. Our staff work closely with parents and caregivers to ensure we provide the best support for our campers, utilizing all the resources available in our recreation branch.
What do students value most about their experiences at the camp?
The friendships, skills, and confidence that children gain through our CampTO programming is invaluable. We want every camper to have their shining moment and be successful. Our camp staff are always looking for ways to make these special moments possible.
What message do you have for new campers?
"Everywhere we go, people always ask us who we are, so we tell them we are CampTO, the Mighty, Mighty CampTO." And if they haven't heard of us, then I hope you have now.
You'll have an amazing time, so make the most of it. Have fun, learn with us, grow, and make lasting friendships and memories along the way. Our camp staff are looking forward to meeting you.
