Come down to Evergreen Brick Works on your PA Day to experience fun, creative and seasonal camp activities and explore urban wilderness in the heart of the Lower Don Valley.
Our PA Day Camp embraces the ever-changing seasonal landscape like no other camp in the city! Our campers will wander through the valley forest and explore the sights and sounds of Toronto’s ravines, learn about the ecological history of the quarry and connect with nature through songs, stories and games at Evergreen Brick Works.
Each PA Day Camp will bring a renewed sense of wonder, respect, and admiration that will be fostered throughout the camp day with a variety of outdoor activities specific to the season, weather, abilities and interests of each camp group as our camp is designed to provide age-appropriate experiences for all campers to have a fun, safe and wild time.
Join us in the valley as we venture out to explore the wilder side of Toronto!

Drop-off is at 8:45am and pick-up is at 3:30pm. Our Extended After Care program runs from 3:30pm-5:30pm. Meeting locations, maps, parking passes and other camp information will be shared with registered camp families in our welcome emails approximately one week prior to the camp session.
This is an outdoor camp program, and we ask for all campers to dress appropriately for the weather. We may not have the perfect fit, however, if your camper needs to borrow a rain/winter jacket, a pair of rain boots or extra clothes, we may have spares for your camper to borrow!
Our campers are grouped by age to create the best experience for them to learn and play in. If you have any questions and/or concerns, please write to camp@evergreen.ca.
