Did you know that the Green Acres Art Centre summer camps are one of only camp options offered in our local area?

We accept campers from all around the Interlake region and work hard to keep our camps accessible to as many people as possible.

Fun Activities

All our camps are jam-packed with fun activities for our campers! Alongside games, crafts, and outdoor activities many of our camps also include special activities like field trips.

Camp for Everyone

At GAAC, we strive to include individuals of all abilities in our programs, including summer camp. If your child requires accommodations or you have specific concerns, please contact the office. 

Our goal is to ensure everyone has a fun, positive experience at camp. Due to staff and venue limitations, we may not be able to meet all unique needs. However, we will do our best to find a solution whenever possible.

Affordable Pricing

As a not for profit organization, the GAAC board works hard to subsidize costs as much as possible.

While we do have to charge for camps to cover the costs to employ our camp coordinators and purchase supplies, we offer discounts for GAAC members.

Payment plans are also available. 

Transportation

We’re planning transportation options to get kids in Stonewall, Balmoral, and Gunton to and from camp. The cost will be $50/week per camper.

Campers must register for transportation 1 week in advance to their camp start date.
