OurKids.net Offers Exclusive List of Ontario Pop-Up Camps

Mississauga, Canada, October 08, 2019 --(PR.com)-- The deadline looms for a strike by CUPE’s Ontario School Board Council of Unions, which represents 55,000 custodians, secretaries and educational-support workers. At 12:01, Monday morning workers are set to strike, unless a deadline deal is reached. As parents scramble to make alternative plans for children and teens, a number of popup camps and programs across the province are responding. OurKids.net has a relationship with camps and programs that extends over two decades, and the list of popup camps and programs on their website is both unique and comprehensive.

These programs are staffed by experienced professionals, have no association with the CUPE union, and offer parents a viable alternative to hiring care. Camps are fully described on the website, with camps listing full contact information, and offering a breadth of information about the experience and expertise available there. Available programs are also mapped, so parents can easily scan available options near them. “We are aware of the plight parents face in this situation,” says Agnes Stawicki, special projects manager at Our Kids Media, “and thankfully we have the resources for them to get immediate help.”

A partial list of unique programs listed on the site includes the following:

Hatch Coding Camps in North Toronto, Richmond Hill and Oakville

Innovation Camp Thinnox in Mississauga

Mayfair Clubs in Markham, Lesleyville and elsewhere in the GTA

Bot Camp in Willowdale and Toronto

Adventure Valley, throughout the GTA

Teen Ranch in Caledon

Envision Robotix in Markham

Kidnetix in Brampton

LOLART SCHOOL Art Camp in Lansing, Agincourt and East York

Camp Muskoka in Bracebridge
