Due to the recent lock downs in Ontario, Apple Hill Scout Reserve will remain closed for the foreseeable future. We look forward to opening once the authorities and Scouts Canada deem it safe to reopen. Stay safe.
Camp Closure
With the recent Ontario Government decision, Apple Hill is closing on 26 December and (hopefully) reopening on 25 January. If you have a reservation, it will be cancelled, rangers will contact you. No new reservations will be accepted during this time.
Apple Hill Stage 3 Reopening
Apple Hill Scout Reserve is now open with stage 3 conditions. This means:
- Groups can now be 50 people (outside)
- Patrols can now ’share’ equipment
Unfortunately, the following are still NOT allowed
- Indoor meetings
- Overnight camping
Apple Hill Open for day use
Starting 31 October 2020, Apple Hill will be open for day use. Some restrictions apply:
- No use of buildings or equipment
- Final booking must be made through DoubleKnot
- All COVID-19 guidelines from Scouts Canada National office must be followed
- Please send the Apple Hill Rangers a copy of your Modified Adventure Application Form and bring the parent submitted COVID 19 screening checklists with you
- Arrivals and departures MUST be at the agreed upon time
- Use only the kybos in your booked field
As always, any booking related questions/inquiries can be directed to AHSRBookings@gmail.com.
Camp Closed Temporarily!!!
Due to Covid-19, Scouts Canada has made the decision to temporarily close all camps, until at least May 4th. Given the severity of the situation with Covid-19, it certainly is the right decision.
Stay tuned…..once the camp is open once again, we will let you know where and on our Facebook page.
