Early Bird deadline – May 15th
Don’t miss the early bird deadline! For one thing, it’s cheaper. $50 cheaper. For another thing, we need to know as far in advance how many campers we’re going to have so we can get enough staff. Registrations that come in later may not be accepted if we can’t find staff to cover those numbers of campers.
So register now and make sure you have a space!

Hey CGIT camper family and friends,
We had an awesome day. We talked about the beauty in our words and how important they are to convey certain messages. We did some water gun painting, kayaking, painting rocks, had a talent show, and any other great activities. As it is our last night, we had a good bye service and we all hugged and are sad to see camp coming to an end.
Love,
Your Camper

Hey CGIT family and friends,
Today was our ‘Beauty in the Media’ day at camp. We had great discussions, did some canoeing and swimming, it was such a beautiful day! Then we did a photo shoot with make up and hair and tiaras. After that we had a formal dinner, it was lovely. We finished with vespers and campfire. Crystal and Sylvia read more of ‘The Giver’ for the girls at bed time. What a great day! I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings!
Love,
Your Camper

Hello CGIT family and friends,
Today was day 2 of our fabulous camp.
We had a wonderful discussion with some guests that told us some stories about their CGIT or camp experiences. It was great to hear about what it was like for them.
It was a very cold day so we only went swimming for a short time after making jewellery and friendship bracelets.
We had a great vesper service run by the girls and then went to the new lodge to watch ‘Into the Woods’ and have a snack. Sylvia continued ‘The Giver’ which we are very much enjoying!
Have a wonderful night!
Love,
Your Camper
