Our Summer Day Camp allows children to discover Ontario archaeology, natural and cultural history, the environment, and science through simulated excavations, artifact exploration, and experiments that help them connect to and learn about the past.

This summer, the Museum of Ontario Archaeology invites campers to step into the field and connect with 13,000+ years of history. Our 2026 Summer Sessions take the eras introduced during our March Break “Odyssey” and expand them into week-long, immersive adventures.

Week 6 – Forest & Future – August 10th – 14th, 2026

Stewardship & Seven Generations- The legacy continues with you! Inspired by the “Seven Generations” principle—that our actions today affect those seven generations from now—we look at how 1000’s years of history can guide a sustainable future. Campers will engage in modern conservation in the Medway Valley and design projects to protect Ontario’s cultural and natural heritage for years to come. Become a Green Guardian!
