Plan for all weather: Better to be over prepared than underprepared. We will head back out on the water after lunch and breaks so please pack multiple options of dry clothing.

• A change of dry clothes (participants will be getting wet)
• Wool, or fleece clothing provide the most warmth when wet
• A bathing suit or water-appropriate clothing 
• A towel
• A hat
• Sunscreen
• **If your child needs to wear glasses on the water, please send them with glasses straps so they do not get lost**
• Some snacks and lunch
• A water bottle
• Lifejackets will be provided

• Please list the adults who are authorized to drop off and pick up your child from camp. If an adult arrives to pick up a child that we do not know, they will be asked to show photo ID so we can match them to the names on your form before we release the child to them.

  If you would like an adult who is not on your form to pick up your child, please send a signed note with your child or let us know in person when you drop your child off for the day. Please include which date(s) this person will be picking up your child.

  If you would like your child to walk home by themselves, please send a signed note indicating they are allowed to walk home by themselves. Please specify if this is for certain days, or for the full duration of camp 

• Bring a signed waiver, a completed medical form, and a pick up/drop off sheet

• Each morning we bring a bunch of different games with us and take the kids to Kinsmen park and spend some time playing dryland games (the kids are not playing on any playground/ park equipment – only using KPC games)

In the past, we’ve enjoyed spending camp days outside rain and shine, only retreating to the covered space in rare instances of lightning. Our indoor spaces are unable to accommodate campers long-term, and with the increased threat of summer wildfire smoke in the Central Okanagan, it is necessary to have an updated plan in place to ensure the safety of our campers and staff.

Throughout camp sessions, KPC Staff will consult the ​​Central Okanagan – Air Quality Health Index for updates on air quality. If our specific Kelowna Paddle Centre conditions are deemed unsafe ( 7+ on the Air Quality Index) for staff and campers by the Manager, we will reach out to all families, first via email then via phone call, by 8:00AM to cancel camp for the day. If your child has additional health concerns or sensitivities and must be withheld from camp, please let us know as soon as possible.

In the event that camp days are cancelled due to smoke, fire, or air-quality concerns, we will offer a refund for the total number of cancelled days. Refunds will not be offered for days that we run camps. These conditions pose a huge threat to outdoor recreation, agriculture, and environmental organizations, and we are grateful for your support and understanding.
