Mission Statement
The objective of the camp shall be the promotion of the Ukrainian Orthodox religion, Ukrainian culture and the promotion of fellowship amongst youth.
This fun-filled two-week summer camp promotes and exposes youth ages 7-13 to the Ukrainian culture, language and traditions. Green Grove camp is open to any and all children!
Green Grove Camp is complete with dorms, cabins, a school house, a log cabin, a dining hall, a recreation hall, a church and showering facilities.
Within a beautiful 10 acre, lake front, tree-filled environment located along Wakaw Lake (approximately one hour from Saskatoon, Prince Albert, Melfort and North Battleford), campers will participate in a variety of activities. We offer arts & crafts (traditional and non-traditional) such as Kolachi (braided bread), Pysanky (Easter Eggs), and cross-stitching). Ukrainian dance and folk singing, sports, and much more will contribute to an enjoyable, memorable experience. No Ukrainian dance or language experience necessary!
Campers will learn about the Ukrainian Orthodox religion taught by parish priests in open discussions, lectures and prayer. Instruction will be based on the children’s needs and ages. Morning and evening prayers, and prayers before and after meals will also be taught. The church on site is used for both lessons and spiritual services. Campers are offered confession and communion as well.
On the final day of camp, the campers will put on a concert showcasing their new Ukrainian dance and language skills. Crafts will be displayed and available to take home as well.
Come and join us in the Ukrainian experience this summer! Friendships will be made for life!
