A DAY AT
OLYMPIA
Olympia offers a real camp experience! Campers will live in cabins equipped with modern conveniences (such as electricity, washrooms, and showers) with 7 to 12 other campers their own age, from all over the world. Each cabin is assigned two counsellors who will lead daily activities, including games and fun challenges designed to help campers step outside of their comfort zone. These fun, shared experiences are what help campers build new friendships that are rekindled year after year!
