Fire & Flower Girls Summer Camp - BLUE HERON (Gibsons, BC)

A specialty day program for ages 12-14. See our website for our 10-12yo programs.

In all Fire & Flower programs, we create a space of radical acceptance for girls and non-binary youth to explore 'coming-of-age'. We celebrate the ways we are both unique from each other and unified in our shared experiences & concerns. Participants are supported to explore the joys and challenges that come with growing up in a fun, judgement free environment. This is a LGBTQ2SIAP+ inclusive and welcoming space.

Each of our 4 empowerment camps delve into different themes and topics surrounding adolescence and young womanhood/adulthood. Each camp balances learning with relevant activities, crafts and a daily dose of nature time. We also provide space for vulnerability and openness with our daily heart circles.

Blue Heron

In Coast Salish culture, blue herons represent patience, elegance and grace. Our Blue Heron Camp curriculum includes:

• A deep dive into media’s portrayal of the female form
• Seeing the real beauty in diversity
• Creating new media that reflects body love and positivity

We keep groups small with only 6-12 participants to maximize connection & intimacy. It’s like a 5-day sleepover without actually sleeping over.

A parent or significant adult is asked to join us Friday afternoon from 1:30-4pm for some special facilitated connection time. Please make arrangements to join us for this meaningful afternoon.

Details about what to bring and required forms will be emailed to you about 2 weeks before the program.
