August Summerfest
Epilepsy Ontario hosts annual summer camping adventures for young adults with epilepsy aged 16 to 24.
The camp provides an exciting environment at Camp Couchiching, where teens are able to meet new friends, participate in various camping activities, and just enjoy themselves. Campers take part in scavenger hunts, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, etc.
Epilepsy Ontario recognizes the need for teens with epilepsy to participate in memorable, enjoyable outdoor events with peers. Epilepsy should not get in the way of these fun activities.
If you are interested in attending our program for teens, please contact Epilepsy Ontario or your local chapter. Application forms are sent out to all potential campers every April. Sponsorship is available.
Winterfest
Every February, youths with epilepsy get together for this fun-filled outing. Youths with epilepsy aged 16 to 24 who can participate actively in outdoor activities may apply. Sponsorship is available for members of local chapters of Epilepsy Ontario.
In previous Winterfests, youths have participated in group activity games, cross-country skiing, snow- shoeing, mountain climbing, forest survival, and more. Youths find Winterfest rewarding in its promotion of socialization among peers. Participants gain self-esteem, learn teamwork and communication skills, and enhance problem solving capabilities. Unforgettable moments and friendships are built during this experience. |
