Ottawa River Canoe Club

ABOUT OUR SUMMER CAMPS

The ORCC summer camp programs provide a progression of options for children of all ages and abilities to introduce the sport of paddling that includes canoe, kayak, dragon boat, outrigger, SUP and war canoe.

The Canoe Kids summer camps are a perfect introductory paddling camp for our new and young campers (ages 6 and up) who want to get out on the water for some fun in the sun.

The daily paddling activities are balanced with crafts, games and a day trip or two to various spots along the river, as well as lots of swimming on those hot and sunny days.

No experience is needed and campers work at their own pace to develop paddling skills. These are non-competitive camps with a focus on  boating fun and water safety.

ORCC also offers Regatta Ready Programs, where Campers will receive instruction in various types of paddling from certified coaches, and enjoy spending time on the water practicing what they’ve learned in both single and team boats.

This includes the Fundamentals and Learn-to-Train levels (age 8-14), as well as Train-to-Train (age 13-15), which includes the opportunity to race in local regattas and championships.

Bus service is available from many pickup points across Ottawa for $30/week.
