At Kandalore, we are proud to be a place of belonging. Where love is celebrated in all its forms, kindness is our culture, and every camper, leader, staff member, and alumnus is welcomed exactly as they are.

Pride Month is a reminder of what we commit to every single day: a community where love is unconditional and every person is free to be their full, true self.

To everyone who has ever felt that freedom here on the shores of Lake Kabakwa, this one's for you. Happy Pride. πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ

Meet your Head Nurse! 🌲

Bry is back for her fifth summer at Kandalore, joining us from Wales where she is working towards her Bachelor of Nursing degree. She loves everything that makes this place feel like home, the campfires, cheering on the Furtraders at Regatta, and yes, a good rendition of Knife, Fork, Spoon, Spatula. She cannot wait to reconnect with old friends, meet new ones, and get to know every single camper this summer.

We could not ask for a better person to keep our campers happy, healthy, and ready for every adventure that comes their way! πŸ›Άβ˜€οΈ

Meet your LIT Directors! 🌲

Maggie is back for her twelfth summer at Kandalore, and her excitement has not dimmed one bit. She studies Media and Communications at Western and spends her summers doing exactly what she loves, being outside, connecting with campers, leaders, and staff, and spreading her love for this place.

Ash brings a wealth of experience to the role, with a degree in Sports Development, years of teaching young people in the outdoors, and over 17 seasons as part of the Kandalore community between the OEC and summer camp. He is deeply passionate about youth development and helping young people discover what they are capable of.

Together, Maggie and Ash bring an unbeatable mix of heart, experience, and enthusiasm to the LIT program. This summer is going to be a special one! πŸ›Άβ˜€οΈ

Meet your Pathfinder Directors! 🌲

Luke is back for his fifth summer working at Kandalore, wrapping up his degree in Outdoor Recreation Parks and Tourism at Lakehead before heading into teacher college in September. He loves everything the outdoors has to offer and cannot wait to bring that energy to the Pathfinders this summer.

Oli is joining us from Scotland for her third year on staff, fresh off completing her Master's in Product Design Engineering. She loves nature, music, and creativity, and is happiest when the sun is out. What keeps drawing her back is the community, the campfires, the magic of being unplugged, and regatta skits.

Between Luke's love of the outdoors and Oli's passion for creativity and connection, the Pathfinders are in for one unforgettable summer. We cannot wait! πŸ›Άβ˜€οΈ
