Registration open for Brock winter camps

Brock is offering a series of winter camps to keep children busy during the holiday break.

Aquatics, Snowfest and Youth University programs will run on campus Jan. 2 to 5 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily.

Aquatics camps include Springboard Diving (Grades 1 to 8), Junior Lifeguard Club (Grades 3 to 8) and Aquatic Multi-Sport (Grades 3 to 8), each taking place in the University’s Olympic-sized pool.

Snowfest has children in Grades 1 to 8 participating in a variety of activities, including swimming, racquet sports, basketball, volleyball, floor hockey and handball, as well as spending time outdoors on campus.

Youth University, for participants in Grades 2 to 8, includes outdoor activities, as well as skill development workshops, such as designing, building and testing bottle rocket cars, participating in improv workshops and learning magic tricks.

“Camps provide Brock students with valuable experience in planning and teaching programs to a wide variety of children and youth,” said Karen McAllister-Kenny, Brock’s Director, Youth Programs. “The January camps are also a good change of pace, as they give us the opportunity to try some different activities in the snow.”

Cost to participate in the Aquatics and Snowfest programs is $150 for four days. A daily rate of $40 is available for Snowfest and Youth University.

Optional before and after care, from 7:30 to 9 a.m. and 4 to 5 p.m., is available for $8 a day.
