  • $40 per participant.
  • For youth ages 6 to 12 years old.
  • Program runs 9am to 4pm each day with care available 8am to 5pm.
  • Fully supervised by qualified OFAH staff and volunteers.
  • Participants are asked to bring their own nut-free, litterless lunch and snacks, outdoor gear, indoor shoes and a re-useable water bottle.

 

 

Wild Waterfowl

It’s fall hunting season and Waterfowl are on the move, with migrations south beginning across the Province. Join us for a day of fun and adventure, while exploring these intrepid travellers.

 

Survival Skills

Have you ever wondered what you would do if you were ever caught in the wilderness? In this fun filled and insightful day we will learn how to start a fire from scratch, build a shelter and more skills which will help you out if you’re ever stuck in a sticky situation in the woods.

Testimonials

What Participants are Saying

“My favorite things are feeding the fish, making new friends and I love the archery! Air guns are also a favourite. And the scavenger hunts with my friends are fun too. In the winter I liked the survival lessons. I can’t wait to come back!”
Josie B.

Age 9

“As a parent, I am thankful that the OFAH is able to offer full-day educational programs for my kids on PA Days. Even though they’re not at school – I know they’re learning amazing things about conservation and the natural world. As an added bonus, the kids are exhausted by the time I pick them up. The PA Day Programs are fun for both my 7 year old as well as my 10 year old.”
Eileen C.

Parent

“Registering my son for the PA Day programs ahead of time is quick and easy, making drop off a breeze. With the extended child care times, I can get to work on time. The pricing is very reasonable too.”
