The Youth Excellence Society

The Youth Excellence Society lets kids between 14-18 say YES to a summer opportunity that lets them thrive in a community of peers. Located on Vancouver Island at the Cowichan Lake Outdoor Education and Conference Centre, children are exposed to the great outdoors in the way it was intended.

Campers are placed by grade level and all sessions are a full week in duration, with the option to attend multiple sessions in the summer. Return campers are encouraged and welcomed year after year with open arms.

Self-discovery and personal development are the focus of The Youth Excellence Society, and kids are given free rein to be themselves and learn what it's like to be a part of a community. They introduce children to effective leadership in a supportive, non-competitive environment made up of friends and world-class camp staff.
