My Story
Camp changed my life in so many ways. I found new friendships, made core memories and even met my future wife.
Making camp accessible to more kids is really important to me. I started my journey with Campfire Circle more than twenty years ago when the organization was called Camp Oochigeas, volunteering as a camp counselor from 2007-2010.
Even though my beard and button have aged from 2007 to 2024, the power of camp has not. I believe camp is more important now than ever. It's a place where kids are fully off screens and safely out of their comfort zones, and surrounded by friends to play, grow and enjoy new experiences.
So please join me in supporting the important work of Campfire Circle. Sign-up for the Sporting Life 10k, the Bonfire Bash, or the Ride to NYC. Visit the Muskoka or Rainbow Lake camps during an Open House or as a volunteer counsellor. And let me know how you'd like to get involved.
