Arthur Kidston Memorial Camp

As an accredited member of the Camping Association of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island (CANSPEI) and The United Church of Canada, Camp Kidston has been building meaningful outdoor experiences for children and youth for more than 55 years!

Founded in 1966, Kidston is located on over 460 acres of woods and water in the northeast corner of Halifax Regional Municipality - and it is the ideal place to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life!

At Camp Kidston, we are committed to creating a just, nurturing environment in which all are fully free to be themselves. We welcome and honour the beautiful diversity of all people reflected in race, colour, national or ethnic origin, sexual orientation, and gender identity or expression.

A week of summer camp at Camp Kidston allows children and youth to develop new friendships, independence, and leadership skills through:

- Out-tripping
- Environmental education
- Sports and games
- Swimming
- Low elements
- Arts and crafts
- Canoeing and kayaking
- Faith exploration

Camp Kidston also provides year-round community events, facility rentals, and facilitated school programs. www.campkidston.com
