NEW MULTI-LEVEL FEE STRUCTURE As Canoe Island French Camp approaches its 40th anniversary, we are embarking on a number of camp infrastructure projects intended to insure that our facility will continue to support our excellent camp programs in the future. As part of this effort we are putting in place a voluntary multi-level fee structure than provides families an opportunity to pay more than the base level camp tuition that has traditionally been requested. Your choice of what fee level you decideto pay will be treated confidentially. We thank you, in advance, for your your registration at whatever tuition level you are comfortable.We do have a financial aid program for academically motivated children who need financial assistance to attend camp. Level I is our base tuition level, that requires outside funding efforts to cover the direct and indirect costs of operating, maintaining, and upgrading the camp. Level II is a higher tuition level that covers about 90% of the true costs of operating, maintaining and upgrading the camp including our low camper to staff ratio and the maintenance and up keep of our buildings, boats, equipment and island infrastructure. Level III is our highest tuition level that covers all of the true costs of operating camp.
Family Camp is for all ages: children 5 and under are half price, 2 and under are free.

Open House provides a chance for families and friends to tour the island and meet the staff. Campers attending Session 1 may stay over with full supervision and special activities until other campers arrive on Sunday. A light buffet will be served and the pool and tennis court will be open. Information will be sent upon registration, or, if you just want to visit, contact us by email or phone.
Form your own colony, make fire with flint and steel, and venture to neighboring islands as you explore the traditions and travels of the French Voyageurs and Native Americans. Share gifts in a potlatch, shoot bows and arrows, do traditional arts and crafts, and cook outdoors. Take an off-island trip by kayak, canoe, sailboat, or bike. Celebrate North American holidays: march in the Friday Harbor July 4th Parade and celebrate Canada Day July 1.
Celebrate chivalry, knights, kings, queens, and dragons from Les Chevaliers de la Table Ronde to the Middle Ages. Learn to fence, become Lancelot or Guinevere in theatrical productions, and practice archery and traditional arts and crafts. Go on a quest with your team across the island to find your reward. Use a trébuchet, put on a puppet show, share your special talent during the Spectacle de Jacques Martin, and try traditional sports.
