Your kids can spend March Break outdoors with the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA).

Registration for the NVCA March Break Camp Tiffin program is now open. The program is for kids aged 5 to 12, and is led by the NVCA environmental educators.

Activities during the Camp Tiffin could include nature walks, forest exploration, animal tracking and bird watching, making maple syrup, shelter building, winter games and crafts, snowshoeing, and kick sledding.

According to the NVCA, the Camp Tiffin program “will enhance your child’s knowledge, understanding, and appreciation of the natural world and our amazing planet.”

Camp Tiffin is located at the 300-acre Tiffin Centre for Conservation (Utopia). Kids will be spending most of the time outdoors, with indoor space for lunch and breaks. All campers must wear proper outdoor clothing and boots.
