Day Camp

Our Mission

The Municipality of Franklin offers a 8 week day camp program to residents and non-residents alike, with a diverse range of activities and animation services, allowing children aged 5 to 12 to take part in group summer activities in a safe and fun environment.

Every day, our dynamic and inspiring camp counsellors do everything they can to:

  • Offer sports, artistic, recreational, educational and social activities in a safe, inclusive and stimulating environment;
  • Give children the opportunity to experience new activities;
  • Provide a learning-rich environment in a spirit of fun;

  • Encourage interaction among children;

  • Offer activities that foster initiative and creativity in children.

Important: Due to renovations at Antoine-Labelle Park, the camp will run 5 days a week at Camping Lac des Pins. Once the work is completed, the regular schedule will resume: 3 days at the Recreation Centre and 2 days at the campground.

Our Values

🌟 Safety – Providing a safe environment where every child can grow with confidence.
🤝 Respect – Encouraging respect for oneself, for others, and for the environment.
🎉 Fun – Offering a dynamic space where play and enjoyment are at the heart of activities.
💡 Creativity – Stimulating imagination and self-expression through enriching experiences.
🏅 Perseverance – Valuing effort, initiative, and resilience in everyday challenges.
🌍 Inclusion – Embracing diversity and promoting an environment where every child feels accepted and valued.
🔥 Passion – Sharing our enthusiasm and inspiring youth to fully engage in their discoveries.
⚡ Energy – Offering an energetic and engaging program that encourages movement and exploration.
💪 Team Spirit – Fostering cooperation and mutual support to build positive and enriching relationships.

This program aims to promote the inclusion of children with disabilities or special needs by enabling them to participate in the camp’s regular activities. However, this is neither a specialized service nor a respite or babysitting service. The well-being and best interests of each child remain our top priority.

If your child requires specialized support this summer, it is essential to submit a request for support from February 9 to March 26, 2026. Any request received after this date may be refused due to a lack of resources. In addition, official registration for day camp must be completed during the designated registration period. Please note that a request for support does not constitute registration for the camp.

Submit a Request

To submit a request for support, please contact the Recreation Manager by phone at 450-827-2538, ext. 225, or by email at loisirs@municipalitedefranklin.ca. An appointment will then be scheduled to complete the required documentation and to discuss your child’s specific needs.

Review of Requests

To be eligible, the child must be enrolled in an adapted class, require the support of a specialized educator, or receive specific support as part of their school program.

Decision-Making

The Recreation Manager and the Municipality’s General Management will review the requests and inform parents of their decision.

Julie Lalonde, Recreation and Communications Manager, at 450-827-2538, ext. 225, or at loisirs@municipalitedefranklin.ca

Franklin’s summer day camp participated in the “Les Bouchées Boubles” project. This project was made possible thanks to Une Affaire de Famille and the collaboration of day camps in Haut-Saint-Laurent (Sainte-Barbe, Saint-Anicet, Huntingdon, Saint-Chrysostome, Franklin, and Ormstown Soccer Club). We extend our thanks to IRCM for funding this wonderful project.
