How to Keep the Spirit of Summer Camp Alive All Year Long
Two Islands Weekend may be done for the season but you can still find ways to keep the camp spirit alive all year long. Here's how you can add a little Summer Camp into your everyday life:
Explore a New Park
Why wait until camp to reconnect with nature? Canada is filled with so many gorgeous parks to explore! And throughout 2017, there's free admission to all national parks in Canada. Get some fresh air in yo' hair.
Host a Craft Night with Friends
Who cares what you make, just CREATE!
Reconnect with Cabinmates
Cabinmate Date! Don't lose touch over the off season, make a plan to grab a drink with your favourite bunk mates. Make sure to enjoy some St Ambroise, Sandbanks Wine, BlackFly or Pommies Cider to make it an authentic TIW reunion.
S'mores/Campfire
Cedar Incense Cones from Scout (405 Roncesvalles Ave) and this Oven S'mores recipe allow you to safely bring the campfire inside.
Bonus: Play one of the "Fireplace for Your Home" videos on Netflix in the background for added camp coziness.
Or Just Watch a Camp Movie
The essentials: Wet Hot American Summer, Meatballs, Camp Nowhere, Heavyweights, The Parent Trap, Addams Family Values, Sleepaway Camp or Friday the 13th!
