We're excited to announce that Breaking Borders registration is now open! Read what a past participant had to say below. "I can confidently say that I’ve been forever changed by our small trip. I pushed myself harder than I have ever done and found physical and mental strength I never knew I had. That one portage felt like a marathon, and yet I’ve never had such a strong sense of accomplishment than when I was able to solo portage the canoe for such a great Length of it. I set goals, small and large, and with the support of the group met them at every turn. I find myself now thinking back to how’s strong I was on that trip, and reminding myself daily what I am capable of."

Yesterday we wrapped up our final day of our virtual camp week. Our WiLd CrEaTurEs had a busy day preparing for our big dance party last night...and were they tired after! Our morning started off with our volunteer Jacklyn leading our WiLd CrEaTurEs through an indoor scavenger hunt that kept them quick on their toes. Following that, our campers were to pick an item from the week and mail it back to our CQ office as part of our 2020 summer camp time capsule. We will reveal ou...r time capsule items at summer camp 2021! In the afternoon campers found themselves doing activities from their Camp in a Box related to the theme of inclusiveness and getting ready for their dance party. Our evening finished with camper awards and a big virtual dance party! Let’s just said we didn’t call our camper WiLd CrEaTurEs for nothing. Till next year CQNWO!! #WildCQCreatures #CQCampIn #ThisIsCQ2020
