YMCA of Northern Alberta Overview
The YMCA of Northern Alberta, a non-profit charity organization, has a long legacy of providing exciting summer camps for children at Camp Chief Hector outside of Calgary.
Kids ages 7-13 can attend one or two weeks of overnight camps. Daily options may include hiking, climbing, arts and crafts, horse education, and setting up tents during their camping excursions.
Youths (14-15 years) can stay in yurts around the lodge while they focus on team-building exercises, sports, outdoor self-reliance, and more.
YMCA of Northern Alberta also offers a two-week equine program focused on horse care, riding activities, day hikes, and games. Younger children aged 6-10 can attend day camps to play with campers and even pet ponies.
