Camp BUCKO

Camp BUCKO (Burn Camp for Kids in Ontario) is a camp open to burn survivors between the ages of 7-17. Our residential camp has grown to over 70 children attending our week long camp in August. There is no fee to attend Camp BUCKO. We are a registered charity providing our program through the generous donations from the fire fighting community, service groups, businesses, the public  and other private/public organizations. A Board of volunteers from across Ontario plan for camp throughout the year. With the donations we receive we are able to fully fund each child’s stay at camp, their transportation and provide them with souvenirs from camp, otherwise known as “swag”.

Activities @ CampBUCKO

There are numerous activities to participate in including:

 

  • Canoeing, Kayaking, Stand-Up Paddle Boarding

Camp BUCKO is a fun, safe and caring camp program free to kids ages 7 to 17 with burn injuries. Our residential setting encourages campers to participate in a variety of social, recreational and therapeutic activities that promote self-esteem, the development of leadership skills and fosters personal growth. At Camp BUCKO, kids have a place where they can be themselves without feeling different or alone.
