Easter Seals Mission Statement

At Easter Seal Camps, it is our goal to provide safe, fun activities in an environment where the focus is on abilities, not disabilities. All of our camp activities are designed to build confidence, independence and peer interaction in a recreational environment. Campers are encouraged and supported to participate in activities they may never have tried before including: climbing on our climbing wall, multi-day hikes, tie-dying, water polo, canoeing, wheelchair basketball, water balloon wars, kangaroo kourt, and leadership training.

Testimonial

Kole Jack - In His Own Words 

For one week I get to go to Camp Easter  at Manitou Beach. On nice sunny days, we go horseback riding. Someone leads the horse and Garnet helps me into the saddle. The horse stops for a drink when we get back and I get to brush my horse. Later in the week two cabins get to go for a barbeque on the Barge. The Barge is wheelchair accessible. We drive our chairs up the ramp and put on lifejackets. There is a barbeque on the Barge. Hubs cooks us hotdogs and cheeseburgers. We all stuff ourselves “like pigs.” The week flies by, it’s time for the final banquet. I take a date. Her name is Kirsten and she is from Saskatoon. At the banquet we eat cake, then go to the Rec shed for the dance. We dance and visit with our friends. Next morning Mom comes to pick me up and I go home with thoughts of coming back next year.
