Ridgely

Managing Director

Hello everyone! My name is Ridgely (she/her) and this summer I will be your Managing Director! This will be my 13th summer at Camp Kawartha and my 3rd on staff. I’ve learned so much from camp and it has always meant a lot to me. Some of my favourite things to do at camp include canoeing, arts & crafts, and exploring the range! When I’m not at camp, I’m currently taking some time off school and working on an organic vegetable farm. I’m really interested in local food production and am hoping to study sustainable agriculture. What I love most about the outdoors is experiencing the change of seasons! As I’m writing this things are just starting to warm up and get green again, and I am looking forward to another beautiful summer at camp. Some things I’ve been doing to help protect our environment include composting and minimizing food waste, and buying produce locally or even growing it myself! For 2021, my goals are to help camp run smoothly so that both staff and campers can have a safe and happy summer, and to make the most of every part of camp! I am so excited to be back at camp and can’t wait to see you there!
