Camp Tawingo

05/20/2026

Here at Camp Tawingo, we are busy preparing the site and our staff for another wonderful summer! We've organized an event that we hope may help you prepare your camper for a fun, rewarding, and successful camp experience this summer, too!

We're proud to be one of several Overnight Camps in the province who have come together to offer our families an opportunity to attend a session by the highly-esteemed, Emma Fogel, MSW. Emma spent many summers as a camper and staff member at overnight camp, and brings her love of camp and her recognition of how important it can be in a child's development to her practice. Emma's primary focus will be helping campers (and their parents) navigate any pre-camp anxiousness they may have.

Where: Holy Blossom, Mishkan Room (Toronto)

When: Thursday, May 28th @7:30pm

Important: Attendance is free of charge, but space is limited and first come, first served. Please note, it is recommended that this session be attended by
parents/guardians only. For security purposes attendees must register by May 27th. Please register at https://tinyurl.com/EmmaFogel and please let us know if you have registered, but are no longer able to attend: [email protected].

Today’s Quotable Quote is from a Tawingo CAMPER!

“On my very first day, I remember how scared I felt to live in a cabin with a bunch of new people I had never met before. It was a completely new experience for me. I had butterflies in my stomach the entire car ride to Camp and I was complaining to my parents about not wanting to leave them...That was until I saw the yellow Tawingo sign...until I saw people running towards each other as if they hadn’t seen each other for several years...until I saw the counsellors meeting their campers, whom they would learn to know so well...until I saw every part of Camp that I now have so many memories of, with people that I now hold so close...There are things about Camp that others wouldn’t understand except for the people who surround you every day...that you wake up next to, sit and eat with every day, or run around with in Programs. When you see these people working so hard towards a goal, like a crest or just a personal achievement, you feel so excited for them...When you see each other learning things—not only from Interest Groups, but from every part of Camp—whether it’s sportsmanship from the Sportsfield, or learning how to take care of one another when spending time with your Circle, or even learning how to make friends when you interact with other Circles like during Lakeside Day, Pine Ridge Day, or All Camp Programs...You can keep these Camp memories in a place that you can come back to, so that when you get stuck in a tedious routine at school, or you miss your “true home” at Camp, you can come back to this place whenever you miss it...so it feels like you’ve never truly left.”

“Every day at Camp is filled with excitement and laughter. From those early mornings spent swimming or canoeing, all the way to the bed time stories and talks—there is never a dull moment.”

Today’s Quotable Quote is from a Tawingo CAMPER!

“When I look back to my first year of Camp, I see how much I’ve changed over the years. I used to be very introverted and not very motivated to achieve my crests. But now, thanks to the amazing staff here encouraging me to try new things and get to know people, I am now a very outgoing person striving to achieve my crests. This camp means a lot to me. The people in my circle are like a second family to me. Every year on the last night of Camp, I am almost in tears because of how sad I always am to be leaving this great place.”

Today’s Quotable Quote is from a Tawingo CAMPER!

“This is my first year at Camp and I’m so proud of what I’ve learned and accomplished. I learned how to set up a tent, tie knots, canoe, and swim! But my favourite thing that I learned is how to live in the moment, and that kindness is contagious.”

Today’s Quotable Quote is from a Tawingo CAMPER!

“One question I always get from friends back home is, ‘don’t you miss your phone?’ My answer to that is no, I really don’t! I’ve always loved how Camp feels like an escape. It’s a place with no worries at all other than when it starts raining and you’ve left your clothes out on the clothesline.”

Today’s Quotable Quote is from a Tawingo COUNSELLOR!

“The most beautiful part of Camp is not Eagle Mountain, nor the Dining Hall full of campers (even though those are both breathtaking)... It is the leadership culture. I remember having the best counsellors in Cabin 4, 7, 10, 14, and 22. They made Camp special for me. Hopefully one day, my campers will say the same thing.”
