1) Should I send my child to CEDAR camp?
The CEDAR Summer Camp is a great opportunity for Aboriginal youth to connect with one another in a positive learning environment. CEDAR gives campers the opportunity to explore a variety of exciting programs found on and around the university campus. The camp also exposes the campers to the numerous opportunities available through education.
2) What are the benefits of CEDAR camp?
CEDAR allows youth to enjoy new experiences and meet new people in a fun learning environment. The campers take part in experiments, workshops, and other fun activities. CEDAR promotes an interest in education and growth in self-esteem, leadership, and social skills.
3) Who pays for CEDAR camp?
There is no cost to the camper’s parents and guardians. This is possible thanks to the generous support of UBC Faculty of Science, Faculty of Land and Food System, First Nations House of Learning, and in 2011 our nutritious meals will be provided by Vancouver Costal Health.
4) How can I feel assured that CEDAR camp is safe?
CEDAR is organized and run by staff and students of UBC. The camp coordinators and volunteers have up to date criminal record checks and will have First Aid and FOODSAFE certification.
5) What if my child has dietary restrictions or allergies?
If your child has severe dietary restrictions or allergies we ask that you send your child with their own food.
