Camp Inspire
TCHC is proud to introduce our new summer program, Camp Inspire!
Camp Inspire replaces Rookie League as our summer day camp for children ages 6 to 12. The program runs during July and August and will run for seven weeks. Throughout the summer, campers will build resilience and self-confidence while developing positive relationships with each other. Camp communities will participate in weekly themed activities designed to inspire exploration and imagination.

Campers will experience fun-filled days with activities like:
- exploring nature with Toronto and Region Conservation Authority
- hands-on STEM activities with Visions of Science
- learning rugby with Toronto Inner-City Rugby Foundation
- interactive sessions led by staff on topics like gardening, cooking, and digital scrapbooking
- nutritious snacks, outdoor play, and off-site activities
- and more!
