Welcome to TOPP KIDS Summer Camp!
If you are returning to us from previous summers, we are so thrilled to see you again! If this is your first time joining in the fun, welcome to the family! We are so excited for all the memories that will be created together this summer!
TOPP KIDS Summer Camp is open to school-aged children aged 5-12 years. We provide children & families with a safe & reliable program that embodies exactly what summer is all about: FUN! We are a fully accredited summer camp with highly qualified educators who are committed to the safety and well-being of your children while focusing on making memories every day that your child will be talking about until next summer rolls around! Our team of educators is committed to being your child’s individual positive role model and mentor and they are excited to build meaningful relationships with you and your TOPP KID.
Our daily schedule is designed to provide a balance of planned and spontaneous activities that are sure to keep children engaged. Our diverse and dynamic range of activities is catered to the needs, interests, and qualities that are unique to every child in the program. From life skills like cooking to outdoor games and physical literacy, STEAM projects like robotics and coding, to arts and expression projects, and weekly field trips, community adventures or visitors. We offer a full range of opportunities for children to Play, Grow, Laugh, & Learn!

Leadership Camp
Subject to AHS restrictions.
In 2018, we introduced our first overnight Leadership Camping Trip! Every year since our Junior Leaders from grades 3 to 6 head to camp for a 4 day, 3-night stay (subject to space and registration)! This is an absolutely amazing trip where our Jr. Leaders have the opportunity to create lasting memories and instill lifelong leadership and life skills. We are beyond excited to continue this tradition again this year at our new location: the Island Lake Retreat Centre!
The annual 4-day, 3-night camping trip for our grade 3 + campers has become a valuable part of our leadership program. Check out the photos below to see a sneak peek of our amazing camp location.
Perks of Island Lake:
– we have the entire building solely to ourselves
– nestled on 55 acres of lakefront land
– private hiking trails & lookouts over the lake & Crowsnest Pass
– indoor plumbing & showers (need we say more)
– industrial kitchen for our kids to cook in
– real mattresses provided (no need for foamies)
– Games room with foosball, ping pong, board games & instruments overlooking the lake
– Outdoor basketball court
– Soccer field & tons of open green Space
– Private Dock
