The 2022 Camp and Program Guide is delivering now. It’s a big year for the guide–this is our 25th edition, celebrating 25 years in the camp and program space. It’s also the biggest issue ever, clocking in at 100 pages. The cover, I think, is pretty great too. It features a photo from our archives, one that’s been a favourite of many for years. It was taken at Camp Ak-O-Mak by photojournalist, Colin O'Connor, who is currently on staff at the National Post. It captures what the year will be like, in a sense: jumping back in, taking the leap into so many of the things that we’ve been missing for the past two years.
The editorial section is expanded and divided into three narrative themes: time to grow, time to learn, time to lead. There’s lots of photography, featuring the work of some of Canada’s foremost photographers, all from the Our Kids archive. I’m proud of what we’ve done. The design, thanks to Alodie Penarubia, is fresh, clean, and bright.
Print copies of the guide have gone out as an insert to subscribers of Globe and Mail and the Toronto Star in some markets. You can access the digital version here.
