Catapult Camp

Catapult Camp will be at Acadia University August 14-21, 2024!

Catapult Camp is a fun, high energy leadership camp focused on enhancing your skills as you enter high school. It’s only one week but it delivers a lifetime of impact!

World-class instructors will help you take your leadership skills to the next level and help you realize your true potential. You will learn problem solving techniques, decision making skills and the benefits of effective teamwork. The program is a combination of inspiring presentations and exciting activities set in an atmosphere of fun and friendship. Some favourite camp activities include mud sliding, high ropes course, cook-off challenge and Rock Night. This is an experience you will never forget.

This experience has been life changing and I can’t even begin to explain how thankful I am. It has helped me believe in myself more, be more willing to work with others without fear of being judged, and I have made family going to Catapult!
