Daily Themes:

Monday, March 29: TREE DAY!

Fun in the forest, tree trivia, and all sorts of other great camp fun await on Tree Day! Campers will learn how forests make our lives better, and how animals and plants depend on trees for many things. We’ll learn how to take care of trees, so they can continue taking care of everyone!

Tuesday, March 30: I LOVE TO LEARN ABOUT NATURE!

Explore the wetlands, forests, and prairies of FortWhyte Alive! Camp staff will be your guides as you delve deep into nature’s wonder—the night-time habits of nocturnal animals, the majesty of the bison herd, and many other adventures are waiting for you!

 
Wednesday, March 31: VOYAGEUR DAY

Join our jolly briggade as we live the life of the voyageur! Learn how the fur trade spurred on our history, enjoy voyageur treats like bannock, and try your skill at trading for furs like the Nor’Westers and Hudson’s Bay Company. All this, and more camp fun, can be found on Voyageur Day.

 
Thursday, April 01: ANIMAL DAY

FortWhyte Alive is home to many furry, feathered, and finned friends—how do they all survive? What do they eat? Where do they go to feel safe? Who eats what ... or who eats who? Animal-themed exploration fills this day of camp. If you’re an animal lover, or want to learn more about the wildlife surrounding the city, come out to Animal Day!
