Want to get involved with camp? You don't have to wait for summer to happen before you can get in on the action. We have several ways you can get involved in camp.
#1) Christmas Youth Retreat (for more info click here)
#2) Work weekends, they are free but you do need to be accompanied by an adult if you are under 18
#3) Join the CCAF, Camp Columbia Alumni and Friends. For $10 you get a lifetime membership and will belong to a group of people who get themselves a special weekend in the middle of the summer to enjoy camp to themselves!
#4) Become a supporter. There are different levels to becoming a member but for as little as $35 you will belong to a supporter list that receives newsletters and other information about camp firsthand!
#5) Volunteer for a parish dinner. What is a parish dinner? A small group of staff and volunteers go to a parish and cook and serve dinner, and then provide a bit of entertainment and talk about how awesome camp is.
#6) Save Canadian Tire money, save small change for a year, buy gift certificates to your favorite stores through camp, shop a Thrifty Foods with a Camp Columbia Smile Card...there are lots of ways! You get the idea...

UPCOMING PARISH DINNERS
Upcoming Parish Dinner Schedule:

PARISH DINNERS
Campbell River & Port Alberni
We've had 2 Parish Dinners in Campbell River and Port Alberni and they've both been wonderful events. It was an excellent opportunity for the parish to share in a dinner together while supporting Camp Columbia at the same time.
People who attended were treated to some camp songs, a camp slideshow and small presentation about where we are and where we are headed. A big thanks to both parishes that helped organize these events and raise support for camp! (And a special thanks to all former camp staff Dan, Ben, Sachi, Tamara, and Lucas. Kudos to Shannon and Mike for all of their hard work!)
A huge thanks to St. John Cobble Hill, St. Mary Magdalene, Mayne Island, St. Peter Campbell River, and Trinity Church Port Alberni who have hosted and supported us with our Spaghetti endeavors this year. (Mary Magdalene Parish made a donation in lieu of us coming over to do a dinner.)

WORK WEEKEND CANCELED
FALL WORK WEEKEND CANCELED
We've had to cancel our work weekend with little notice unfortunately. Mike, Shannon, and Eric are not able to be there and thus we will have to postpone this event. It will be rescheduled so we'll still have an opportunity to get to camp, have fun, and beautify the property. Sorry and thanks for your understanding!
