July 10th – 16th Re:Invent :: SocialMedia Camp!
Where is the camp and how do I get there?
Re:invent::SocialMedia camp will be held on Cortes Island, BC, at Channel Rock, an oceanfront retreat center. [map] Reel Youth offers bus transportation between Nanaimo Departure Bay ferry terminal and Cortes Island.
How much does it cost?
The program fee is $350 and includes: transportation to and from the camp (between Nanaimo and Cortes Island), platform tent accommodation, meals (including dinner on arrival day and a packed lunch on departure day) equipment and all other program-related costs.
Partial scholarships are available for some youth who would not otherwise be able to attend the camp. Scholarships will be awarded based on financial need.
Reel Youth offers this program at a fraction of its actual cost. Even at our discounted program fee of $350, there will be those for whom the cost will be a barrier. If would like to donate to our scholarship fund, all funds raised will be used to provide financial assistance to youth that might otherwise not be able to attend our programs. All donations to Reel Youth are tax-deductible.

What should I bring?
sleeping bag & pillow
flashlight
swim suit & towel
enough clothes for a week
your camera (if you have one)
Reel Youth will be providing all of the video, sound and editing equipment.
What comforts and amenities will there be?
Channel Rock is "off-grid", which means that it uses mainly solar power. For bathing, there are solar showers, and of course the ocean! There are phones and internet on site for emergency use. Campers will be staying in tents provided by Channel Rock.
I still have more questions. Who can I talk to? Andrea Curtis: andrea@reelyouth.ca
