OUR KIDS review of YMCA Camp Queen Elizabeth

The YMCA camps have long set a standard, ever since Taylor Statten joined the Y in 1906 and really inaugurated a new era in camping programs. While Camp Queen Elizabeth and Camp Henry may not share the vintage, they nevertheless express the ideal, namely providing opportunities for young people to work and grow together through the lens of some core values: mutual respect, responsibility, honesty, and empathy. Camps Henry and Queen Elizabeth add location to the mix—Henry is within Point Pelee National Park on Lake Erie, and Queen Elizabeth is on Beausoleil Island in Georgian Bay Islands National Park. As such, both offer unique opportunities to experience aspects of Canada’s natural heritage. The sites are pristine, in keeping with the context. Some shorter sessions offer younger campers to get their sleepaway feet wet, adding a nice dimension to the programming.
