EVENT DETAILS
We can’t wait to welcome you to camp!
More information will be shared closer to your arrival, but here is a snapshot of what you can expect from your weekend with us.
Friday Afternoon: Arrivals
We will be ready to welcome you and your family any time after 4 pm. After you arrive, take some time to get settled in our bunkhouses and explore the beautiful camp property.
Friday Evening: The official kick off of our weekend together
A cocktail hour followed by a delicious family-style meal and evening activities. Choose your own adventure! This will be your opportunity to sign up for the activities you and your family are most interested in.
Saturday Morning/Afternoon: A fun filled day of Camp Activities
Your day begins with a hearty breakfast before you and your family head off to start your camp adventure and the activities you signed up for the evening before. Our weekend will offer both family and individual/age appropriate programming. We will take a break to come together for lunch and also enjoy some quiet/down time in the afternoon, if you so choose.
Saturday Evening: Camp Fire Celebration
What would a trip to camp be without a camp fire? The camp fire circle is often what our campers remember the most about their time at camp, and it will be no different for your family. Join us for a magical night around the fire filled with music, stories and more
Sunday Morning: Last day at Camp
After another delicious meal together, head out to enjoy every last moment of the activities our camps have to offer.
Sunday Afternoon: Departures
Sadly, Family Camp will need to end after one last lunch together, but the memories made with your family will last forever. We wish everyone a very safe journey home.
Accommodations:
Each bunkhouse at Onondaga Farms has private rooms with two sets of twin-sized bunk beds, shared bathrooms and common areas with couches and a fireplace. Our bunkhouses will be a great home base for the entire family.
Throughout the weekend, families will enjoy a private bedroom with their family members. Depending on the number of people per family, we may assign you to more than one room.
As you prepare for the weekend, no need to worry about towels and bedding. Our teams will have towels and all necessary linens ready for you upon arrival.
Family Lounges
Throughout the weekend, there will be a family lounge set-up for you to enjoy complete with warm beverages, snacks, a television, books, board games and baby and toddler amenities. This will be a great place to warm up from the cold or enjoy time throughout the evening once our programs are done for the day.
Childcare
Throughout this weekend, we look forward to offering families the opportunity to participate in activities together and/or head out to activities on their own with our staff. Our staff will always ensure that our programs and transition times are well supervised. Childcare in the bunkhouses and overnight, will be the responsibility of each family.
Food & Alcohol
Our Food Service Teams look forward to sharing their culinary skills with you. While at camp, we will provide all meals and snacks. Our meals will be served family style which is one of our many camp traditions. This will give you the opportunity to share a meal as a family, with a new family you meet over the weekend or recreate an adult and kids table tradition. Following your registration, we will be in touch with you to discuss any dietary restriction and/or food allergies that we need to accommodate. Our food service teams are well trained in allergy and special diet management. They will be pleased to incorporate your needs into their menu planning.
Alcohol will be made available during cocktail hour and at dinner on Friday and Saturday night. As you plan for this weekend, please feel free to bring any additional beverages to enjoy throughout the evening all while remembering the family focused nature of this weekend.

Organized by
Since its founding in 1974, the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation’s core philosophy has centred around building stronger communities across Canada and the United States through our work with youth from low-income families.
Together with our generous supporters, partners and staff, we now have seven inspiring camps across North America, and have shared the magic and power of camp with more than 250,000 children and youth over the last 43 years.
Tim Horton Camp experiences are more than just a fun trip away from home. Our programs are designed to support our campers in becoming more responsible, caring and motivated individuals. We believe that investing in youth living in high priority neighborhoods is a valuable and meaningful way to support and build our communities.
Through our two signature camp programs, Foundation programming helps our campers develop lasting strengths and life skills that allow them to thrive at school, develop resiliency in the face of challenges, succeed in their future workplaces and become positive, contributing members of their communities. Camp is often a catalyst for change and can be that pivotal moment that turns a young person’s life around.
To every sponsor, benefactor and contributor, whose generosity makes it possible for Tim Horton Children’s Foundation to continue to expand these opportunities to youth from low-income families, we extend a heartfelt thank you.
