Facilities
Q-Camps utilize the state-of-the-art Athletics and Recreation Centre
(ARC) which is a 47,000 square-metre multi-purpose athletic facility in
the heart of campus. It features two gymnasiums, two combative rooms,
four dance studios, 10 squash and racquetball courts as well as a gigantic
38x35 metre pool. The ARC is also large enough for campers to enjoy
lunch within the premises. Also utilized is Tindall Field – Athletics &
Recreation’s multi-purpose artificial multi-season playing field. This gives
campers a chance to be active outside and enjoy the fresh air.
Staff
Our counsellors are mature university students who are selected for their
expertise in physical activity and ability to work with youngsters. Each
