Summer days at Sans Souci are filled with fun and adventure. A fun place on hot days is the swimming pool, which is supervised at all times by a certified lifeguard.

Best-loved evening activities include talent shows, team building games and challenges, dances, carnival nights, musical slide-shows and quiet times around the campfire.

VISITING DAY AND TELEPHONE

There is no visiting day during a single session. Departure day, held on the last day of camp, is considered a visiting day for campers staying longer than one session. Should it be necessary to visit a camper, this can be arranged if the camp is notified prior to the visit. Campers may use the telephone to call a parent for emergencies.

MAIL DELIVERY

A carefully planned, balanced diet will be provided for the camper. Please, do not send food. Campers may receive regular mail. Care packages are allowed. Amazon packages will not be delivered to campers. For emergency parcels or mail we suggest Purolator or similar delivery.

UNPLUGGED POLICY

We believe that our campers benefit from being without their electronic devices during their stay with us.

This unplugged environment will help campers to develop valuable life and social skills by encouraging them to communicate face to face and enjoy the freedom to be where they are without outside distractions.
