"A World of Pleasure" : 2005 summer camps

The 2005 summer camps will have allowed close to 100 blind/visually impaired children to enjoy a fun filled summer in a safe and secure environment: canoe, kayak, camping, swimming, day trips to La Ronde and Fort Angrignon, water slides, whitewater rafting, to name a few of the activities offered by the Foundation.

The children can choose the day camp formula and/or the weekly stays at different camps. They learn new skills, make friends and enjoy new experiences in a safe and pleasant atmosphere.

A summer's day activity that raises $1,700 for the Foundation

Our sincere thanks to the team of Aventures en Eau Vive (www.eauviverafting.ca) for their July 31st whitewater rafting fundraiser activity. The profits of the day, $1,700 will be used for the sports and recreational youth programs. The whitewater rafting was thrilling for the participants and they hope to be able to get wet again with the gang of Aventures en Eau Vive, maybe next summer.
