Willow Springs Camp is an interdenominational Christian ministry and a registered charitable organization owned and operated by One Hope Canada. Campers are encouraged to trust Jesus as Saviour and to grow in their faith through prayer, Bible reading, and attending church or a youth group. Check out our mission, values, beliefs, and more on our About Us page!
Our camp days begin with everyone at flag raising singing the National Anthem and praying for our country, and our days end with meeting together as individual cabins for devotions and learning from the Bible together. We sing grace and pray before each meal. Every morning after breakfast campers and Summer Team Members participate in chapel, which includes singing, skits, Bible stories, and learning more about God. Campfire also provides the opportunity for Summer Team Members to share how God has changed their life. There is an evening chapel as well for the older weeks of camp. Throughout the day Summer Team Members role model healthy Christian lives.

Year after year we are encouraged by the quality of young people who choose to apply to serve at Willow Springs Camp. Each of our Summer Team Members are carefully selected through a rigorous and thorough process, including a written application, personal interview, reference checks, and a vulnerable sector screening/police records check. Most of them have worked at Willow Springs before, yet we still put them through the same process each year to ensure the highest quality Team Members to work with our campers and to encourage leadership development and growth.
Each of our Team Members are professing Christians, and are involved with their home church, and many of them also volunteer and work with children and youth year round. The majority of our Summer Team Members are from the local area, and all are personally known to us or recommended by someone we highly trust. Most have even been campers at Willow Springs and enthusiastically return to help give other campers a great camping experience like they have received! We only choose the highest caliber of Summer Team Members who are good role models and can lead by example. Willow Springs Camp has a two-to-one camper to Summer Team Member ratio.
Our training begins many months before camp starts, with applications and our hiring process. Once Summer Team Members have been carefully selected and hired, we begin regular meetings with them to help plan for the summer ahead. Every Summer Team Member is required to attend a training week in June before the campers arrive, with two weeks of training for our Senior Team Members. We bring in community leaders, experts, current and former Team Members to share their knowledge. Our training includes seminars in safety, first aid, working with children, working with different age groups, teaching, instructing, leading, planning activities, skills instruction and leadership, dealing with emergencies, waterfront considerations, and more. Our lifeguards are fully qualified, and have NLS certification. It is our goal to have our Summer Team Members prepared to make each week the best one possible for your children.

Tours can be arranged by calling the camp office, however, the best time to come and see the camp before camp begins is during our annual Willow Springs Camp Open House! Come and take a tour, participate in skills, and enjoy refreshments with our current Summer Team Members and Board Members. We host this every year near the end of June. If you would like to be added to our email list and notified about this year’s date, please contact our office by emailing
The tuck shop is open each day during Free Time for campers to have the opportunity to pick out a snack if they so choose. Tuck stands for "Totally Unnecessary Candy for Kids!" Tuck fees are included in your camper registration. The tuck shop has bottled water, pop, chocolate bars, candy, chips, and other snack items.
At the end of lunch each day is mail time, and campers love to receive letters! You may drop letters off at check-in on the first day to be distributed to your child throughout the week, or send them in advance to arrive at camp during the week. Mail may also be dropped off throughout the week at the camp office. We encourage you to send your child mail, but please do not send any snacks with their mail due to allergies.
