Welcome teachers
At Finlay Park we understand organising a school camp is a tough job, but so incredibly worth it! The reason you are on our web page is because you believe school camping has incredible value. And we are here to help and make it happen. Below are a number of resources and information you can use to make the task easier. Anything missing or anything you would like to see in there? Contact us and let us know.
At Finlay Park Adventure Camp, we aim to make your camp organizing experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible, and our Program Manager, Joe Hall, is here to lend a helping hand every step of the way. Once you have your dates locked in and your booking confirmed, you and Joe can team up to outline your camp’s goals, choose fun activities, and discuss your budget. It might feel a bit daunting at first, but if you can share just two important details, Joe can get the ball rolling on your program.
First, let us know how many participants you anticipate, splitting them into kids and adults, to help us figure out the right number of activity groups.
Second, share the activities that interest you, so Joe can begin working on a tailored program, schedule, and cost estimates. If you’re new to camping or need some guidance on activities, Joe can suggest options that suit your campers’ ages, skills, and experiences. Feel free to contact him by phone or email! If you have specific activities you’d like to include, just mention them and Joe will add them to the plan.
With just those two questions answered, we can set your camp organization in motion. Joe has crafted hundreds of unique camp programs, and he can create a program just for you! He will provide you with a detailed camp schedule that includes activity timings, group breakdowns, and an itemized estimate of your costs. If the first draft of your program doesn’t quite fit your goals or budget, don’t hesitate to reach out to Joe for adjustments, modifications, or even a complete redesign to make it just right for you.
After your program gets the green light, Joe will guide you through any other requirements for the camp, so you have all the necessary information at your fingertips. Plus, if your camp involves catered meals, he’ll help gather dietary needs for both campers and adults to ensure everyone is well-fed. And remember, if any questions pop up along the way, just give Joe a call; he truly loves helping you create a fantastic camp experience that runs as smoothly as possible.
