Camp Chapleau - Images from the Past - Hope for the Future

Camp_Chapleau_-_Images_from_the_Past_-_Hope_for_the_FutureSince 1906 children in need have found a summer refuge on the shores of a small Laurentian lake. Camp Chapleau is operated by the Old Brewery Mission. Images in this video are primarily from the pre WWII photo archive but the role of the camp remains as vital today as it was then.

Lagganlia Adventure 2001 and 2007

Lagganlia_Adventure_2001_and_2007During my last year of Primary School and last year if Secondary school, I went to Lagganlia, an outdoor education centre which provide a fun filled week of water rafting, team exercises, raft races, canoing, cycling, archery, gorge walking, rock climbing and navigating. I went the first time for a week and a weekend the second time. The highlight of the first was hitting a rock while rafting and having the boat turn upside down, however we didn't fall in thankfully. The second time I went, we had a huge raft race where my team won but we were catapulted into the water by an opposing team who cheated by pushing our boat over. The water was freezing as it was in December. Another funny highlight was when we had to fill up a tube with water and the leader told us to step away from it afterwards; unknown to us, there were holes in it and so we got a little wet. This video is 64.9mb so should take a few minutes to load.
