Fortin, Neil

Pathways: The Ontario Journal of Outdoor Education, v12 n3 p4-7 Spr 2000

Camp Tawingo (Ontario) started as a summer camp in 1961 based on the philosophy that through outdoor recreation and fun, children can learn about self, others, community, and nature. This philosophy has guided it through its growth into an independent residential outdoor center and an independent, small rural school for grades K-8, Tawingo College. (TD)
