YMCA Bigcove - Camp Life

LIFE AT CAMP

Big Cove campers are divided into three sections - juniors, seniors and leadership - to ensure our program is designed specifically for their age. They are then divided into cabin groups of approximately eight children and are supervised by two counsellors who live and work with the group to ensure that each camper receives individual time and attention. Counsellors are supported by a number of program area specialists who help lead and supervise camp activities. Campers and counsellors live in rustic, open cabins close to the main camp area. All of our cabins are a short walk to the dining hall and washhouse facility.

Safe Adventure

The primary concern at Big Cove YMCA Camp is the safety of all our programs. Specially trained staff closely supervise all our programs. We have a 24-hour supervision policy to ensure that each camper is under our constant care and supervision. Our Health Care Manager lives on site and is equipped with proper first aid supplies to care for our campers and staff, should any participants require treatment. Local medical facilities are less than 15 minutes from camp.
The full-time Camp Director, Emily Haynes, lives on site to ensure that all Big Cove programs are being managed in a safe and risk free manner. To contact our Camping Office in the off-season call (902) 425-9622 or email info@bigcove.org.
