Born This Way Summer Camp

This 6 day, overnight camp is open to anyone ages 5-17, in the 2sLGBTQIA+ community, their allies or siblings. Staffed entirely by queer adults and trusted allies, this program offers a space where kids can feel safe, celebrated, and truly seen.

We offer the same inclusive and supportive programming as with all of our camps: canoeing, crafts, outdoor education, and more. Every activity is designed to build self-confidence, spark joy, and create a powerful sense of community. Whether campers are exploring their identity or just want to connect with others who get it, Born This Way is a supportive environment where they can be unapologetically themselves.

There are only a few camps like this in Alberta—we’re proud to be one of them.

*Pricing is tiered to accommodate varied financial capacity, and siblings registering receive an additional discount. Volunteer positions available!
