From FRIDAY 3pm to SUNDAY 3pm we will gather at Camp Smitty. Join us on this 30 acres of scenic beauty, forests and trails. The camp is nestled along the shore of Mink Lake. Lifeguards will be on duty at scheduled times during the weekend. We will be able to enjoy both swimming and canoeing.
Camp Smitty is located near the town of Eganville, Ontario, on Mink Lake, about 95 minutes west of downtown OTTAWA (directions and map).
Each participant will need to provide her own bedding, sheets, blankets, pillow, towels, etc.
If you would like to share a cabin with anyone registering at a different time, identify yourself with a group name on your registration form. Please note that groups may not necessarily have exclusive use of the cabin. Unless your group completely fills the available beds, you may be sharing with other women as well.
Smoking is limited to specific outside areas only.
All meals will be wholesome, plentiful, and delicious, with a choice of vegetarian and non-vegetarian. Women who have other dietary requirements must bring their own supplements. There will be six meals—the first on Friday evening—and two snacks.
Call with your specific requirements. We will work with you, and hopefully meet your needs.
Work exchange positions are integral to the success of our camps. However, they are limited. Please call for more information and availability.
If you will need a ride from the airport, bus station, or rail station, we will happily arrange a shuttle for you at minimum cost. Call for details or to book this service.
