BC SPCA Kids Camps
BC SPCA summer day-camps are held at various locations throughout British Columbia. During the week, campers are immersed in animal-themed activities and are challenged, in fun and engaging ways, to learn about responsible animal care, animal facts and to develop positive, respectful relationships between people, animals and nature. They leave feeling inspired to be ambassadors for animals in their community.

The activities each day range from active field games to quiet hands-on projects and include games, crafts, skits, guest speakers and time with animals. All of our activities have been designed by the BC SPCA to incorporate positive animal welfare themes.
