Kiwanis Camp Wa-Ri-Ki

Camp Wariki hosted 32 Groups for camping in 2023. These groups brought their own programs. The groups included all ages from preschool to adults. Many were faith-based groups. We also hosted several schools that did nature programs on site. We hosted Kiwanis Key Club leaders and High School choir and bands. We held two big community events. The Easter Egg Hunt on March 30th was a huge success with over 130 people. 6,000 eggs were prepared and "hidden" around the field. There was a separate area for toddlers. We served lunch that was donated by three local businesses. We also hosted a Nature Day. The program includes 5 stations that kids and parents went through with various activities. There was gold digging, pinecone bird feeders, scat identification and the Vancouver mobile children's Museum. There were about 40 kids and their parents who attended.
