Sparrow Lake Camp is situated on the southernmost edge of the Canadian Shield and is located on the traditional and ancestral lands of the Anishinaabe peoples, including the Ojibwe, and the Huron-Wendat, who lived, travelled, and cared for this land long before European incursion.These Indigenous nations had established societies with complex systems of governance, culture, and trade, connected through extensive networks of waterways and portage routes. They were skilled stewards of the land and were the original guides, teachers, and navigators of this region, sharing their knowledge of these lands and waters with early European explorers and settlers.We recognize that this place is part of a broader network of Indigenous nations with deep, ongoing relationships to these forests and waterways, and we acknowledge the enduring presence, resilience, and contributions of Indigenous peoples past and present.As a camp community, we are grateful to live, learn.

Cedar Ridge Camp in 2005. A long-time advocate of the camp experience, Peter wanted to create an integrated boys’ and girls’ camp that would offer comprehensive outdoor education programs that foster personal growth. Peter’s vision was rewarded when he came upon a spectacular 150-acre property located on beautiful Lake Wannamaker near Bancroft, Ontario.The site was originally a resort operated by the Potts family until it was purchased by the East York YMCA in 1956. The YMCA opened Camp Wangoma, an offshoot of Camp Sunfish on Lake Simcoe. Wangoma, which means “adopt you as a brother”, ran as a camp for boys aged 8 – 16 until 1980. To this day, the physical layout of Cedar Ridge is a legacy of Camp Wangoma.In 1980, the YMCA then sold the property to the Pentecostal Church of Bancroft, which transformed the site into Natureland Bible Camp. Natureland operated under the direction of the Bowler family until it was purchased by Peter in 2005 and became Cedar Ridge Camp.Peter was struck by the amazing potential of the site’s expansive shoreline, which creates a virtually private bay surrounded by Crown land and very few neighbours. Following a year of rebuilding and renovating, Cedar Ridge began to take shape. In the formative stages, we intended to create a unique camping culture by blending the senior staff’s collective experiences from some of Ontario’s finest legacy camps including Mazinaw, Gay Venture, Kilcoo, and Oconto. We proudly welcomed our first summer campers in July of

Founded in 1971, Leaside Daycare Centres (LDCC) provided a service for infants that was almost non-existent in Toronto at the time. The original site, in the lower level of a duplex on Laird Drive, provided space for 12 children. Expansion was imperative.In 1972, 100 McRae was purchased to provide infant care to 35 children. The residential setting was deliberately chosen and provided an ideal setting for babies, and a pleasant area for their walks.The Preschool Division opened in 1975 at 73 Fleming, at the request of parents interested in continuing care beyond age 21/2.Again a residential setting was chosen, and space provided for 35 children, aged 21/2 to 5.In 1984, a group of parents from the Fleming Centre organized a non-profit group and petitioned the Board of Education of East York to provide space for school age daycare in Leaside. Space was provided in Rolph Road for 40 children from kindergarten through grade 4. Rolph Road Daycare Centre, a non-profit organization run by a parent board, employed LDCC to operate and staff the program.In October of 1994, after a process of more than a year, LDCC converted to non-profit centres.
