We’re excited to offer eight weeks of summer camp for children ages 6–12. Each week features a different animal theme and is tailored to a specific age group: three weeks for ages 6–8, and five weeks for ages 9–12.
Our camp is small and welcoming, with space for just 12 campers each week. Throughout the summer, kids will enjoy hands-on time with shelter animals, outdoor play, crafts, and visits from inspiring guest speakers.
Animal Interaction: While we can’t predict which animals will be at HSOMH during camp, campers will spend time with cats, dogs, small animals, and reptiles. They’ll also have the chance to help care for animals in our education room, including rabbits and reptiles.
Games & Crafts: Campers will spend plenty of time outdoors both on the HSOMH site and the park next door (weather permitting), and will also enjoy indoor games and lots of animal-themed crafts every day!
Education: Each day, campers will learn something new about the animals we care for. We also host a variety of exciting guest speakers throughout the week.
Please note: We do not offer before- or after-care outside of these times.
The camp is held at the Humane Society of Oakville, Milton & Halton. The address is 445 Cornwall Road in Oakville.
The fee for the camp is $385 for one week. Fridays are pizza days! If your child would like to participate, there is an additional cost.
Campers must be between 6-12 years old, and attend the camp week designated for their age group. There is no flexibility on our age policy. Each week will have 12 campers.
This program is filled on a first-come, first-served basis. However, if the camp is full, we can place you on a waiting list for a cancellation. To be added to the waitlist, please email education@omhs.ca with your name, phone number, and your child’s name and age.
Campers will not be volunteering with the animals, but will have many opportunities to spend time with a variety of child-friendly animals that have been carefully selected to come to camp.
Summer Camp 2025 registration is now closed.
To be added to the waitlist, please email education@omhs.ca with your name, phone number, child’s name and age, and the weeks you are interested in.
