Camp Kahuna is located in north Burlington on a beautiful 65 acre surrounded by the Niagara Escarpment. The address is 5100 Appleby Line, Burlington. Kahuna has become Halton’s most successful camp and first choice for parents who are seeking an incredible camp experience for their children. We have directors at camp who ensure the quality of our camp program and staff meet the Kids 4 Kids high expectations. We want to exceed your expectations with regard to program quality, safety protocols and staffing.
The Program
We combine traditional camp activities like campfires, swimming, fishing, cooperative games, and fort building with the extraordinary. Each week we have theme days that include medieval, wacky hair, superhero and Olympic days, to name just a few. We also have had presentations from individuals who entertain and role model leadership. We have had musicians, actors, sports heroes, and animal experts entertain our campers. We have different performers every year to make your child’s experience extraordinary. Please note that we offer additional activities every year. The photos on this page represent some of our activities at past camps. They are not necessarily the activities we have every year. We are always looking for new experiences for our campers to have an incredible camp experience. Our goal is to create the best camp possible for the children and parents we serve.
Before & After Care is offered at our camp location from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. Parents must pick their children up from the camp parking lot.
Safety
We strive to have an extremely safe camp environment for our campers.
We ensure that our senior staff have their police checks and First Aid/CPR Certificate.
We have lifeguards that maintain safety around the pool. Our leaders are either in the pool with our campers or are supervising on the deck. All eyes are on our campers when they are around water.
We have two camp directors who are always at camp, ensuring the campers are safe and our programs run well. Most camps have directors that travel from site to site. Our directors are at camp every day.
We have two 40-foot by 40-foot canvas tents to protect our campers from the weather. If the weather is dangerous, we take the campers to the camp’s main building.
We have sunscreen and water breaks daily to ensure our campers are protected from the sun and water breaks to ensure they are hydrated.
My staff are trained to give your children their undivided attention. Therefore, they are not distracted by electronics.
Our staff are individuals who have a passion for working with children. Many teachers and educational assistants have experience dealing with children of all ages.
A Day at Camp
Every week at camp is different. We have fun theme days and pack each day with events like the Kahuna Carnival, Joe-lynn: The World’s Greatest Hypnotist, Wet and Wild Day, Silly Science, and Messy Games. Each day also has swimming, fishing, cooperative games and leadership workshops. We guarantee your child will have an incredible camp experience.
We love creating camp adventures for children. We pull characters from Scott Graham’s books, creating a magical camp environment. We also have theme days each week. Here is an example of a typical theme day at camp. Please note that this is just one example of what a typical day may look like.
