Taiga Adventure Camp Staff

For more information on becoming a counselor, please check out our Job Opportunities.

Staff Just like our campers, the TAC staff is comprised of unique, talented, counsellors. One counselor is assigned to every eight camper. In addition to our core counsellors, there is also a Camp Manager who oversees camp operations and a Camp Director, who oversees staff and camp programming.

Our staff are trained professionals with First Aid, Survival Training, Lifeguarding duties and have all been screened for security checks.

TAC campers will also benefit from a number of guest artists and individuals who will share such talents as trapping to outdoor cooking, yoga and singing. Ultimately, our staff are a major part of what makes TAC such a great experience.

All of our staff share the same goal - to give our campers a positive, memorable experience that will last a lifetime.


Guest Speakers and Role Models

In addition to our excellent staff, TAC invites guest speakers such as elders and artists and other community role models and leaders to come to the camp and spend a few days sharing their knowledge and talents with campers.


Future Staff

Previous TAC campers who have reached 17 years of age will have the opportunity to become Leaders In Training (LIT).
