TORONTO, ON --– Registration is now open for Harbourfront Centre’s March Break (March 11-15, 2013) and Summer (Jul. 2 – Aug. 30) Camps, offering a variety of programmes to children ages 3-15.  From dramatic theatre camps to exciting sports camps to thrilling sailing camps and daring circus camps, inspiring adventures await every child in 2013.

"Out of all of the camps that we sent our kids to ... I found (Harbourfront Centre) to be the best. It was a really positive experience." ~ Parent of former campers

New March Break programmes include Camp PawsWay, where campers learn about cats and dogs, their origins, health, training, basic tricks and more through a week of pet-themed activities, games, arts and exploration. Another exciting new offering is Eco Explorers, where campers learn how they can make a difference in our environment by exploring Toronto’s waterfront and green spaces.

Harbourfront Centre is also proud to announce a variety of new groundbreaking programmes for Summer Camps, including French-language programming with Collège Boréal and overnight camps in partnership with Toronto and Region Conservation Authority at their beautiful Lake St. George Field Centre.

Other new programmes include the Baker's Dozen programme for older campers, ages 8-12, in partnership with Liaison College of Culinary Arts and a new Sr. Digital Photo Camp that takes photography to the next level by exploring advanced digital photography concepts.  Sailing and paddling programmes are always popular along the lake with the introduction of new camps including Sailing Counsellor-in-Training (Sailing CIT), Jr. Intro to Sailing and a Paddle Canada Kayak Course.  With over 70 programmes to choose from, there is definitely something for every child this summer!
