Summer Camps in Winnipeg (2025) - The most up-to-date list!
The most Comprehensive Winnipeg Summer Camp List for 2025 is HERE!
Parents of Winnipeg, it’s that time of year again… I know, I know—we’ve barely made it to February (barely escaped 2024 for that matter), but somehow, it’s already time to start thinking about Winnipeg Summer Camps for 2025. Feels way too soon, right? I’m with you!
And yet, like clockwork, my super-organized Mom friends have already started sending me their Excel spreadsheets (seriously, how do they do it?!). If you’ve ever been the one scrambling at the last minute or—gasp—realizing you missed sign-ups altogether, you know how important it is to get ahead of the game. Been there, done that, learned my lesson!
That’s exactly why I put together this list every year—to save us all from the chaos and stress of last-minute camp panic. So, without further ado, here it is: The Ultimate Winnipeg Summer Camps List for 2025!
If you notice anything missing, please send it my way! This list keeps growing every year, thanks to all of you who share your finds. Let’s make it as comprehensive as possible—for all of our sanity. And may the odds be ever in your favour on the queue lines. Solidarity, friends!!
Happy planning, and thanks to everyone who’s contributed so far! ❤️
