Summer Camp

Girl with torch

Kamp Kiwanis is owned and operated by The Kiwanis Club of Calgary (Kamp Kiwanis). Since 1951, increasingly, 30-80 children per session, have had the opportunity to attend Kamp Kiwanis for between 6 and 12 days, 100% subsidized, including transportation. This is made possible through several fund raising initiatives and the generous contributions made by donors every year.
