Final Camp Information

Camp Starts Friday at 12pm and Ends Monday at 6pm !

The 4th Annual Waterloo Sikh Youth Camp will be held at Kitchener Gurughar
(2070 Snyder’s Road East, Petersburg, Ontario). The camp is completely FREE, however we are accepting donations. This Sikh Youth Camp has been designed to bring all the Youth together to share knowledge of Sikhi and to promote Sikhi to our future. It will be run by qualified individuals from all over Canada. Working together we shall achieve an important element in Sikhi, which is Sangat. Included in Sangat your child will have inspiring role models who are enthusiastic about instilling the Sikhi spirit within these young minds.


The youth are expected to stay at the Gurughar during the entire duration of the camp. Also, we feel very strongly about the comfort issues parents have, and would like to ensure you all that your children will be in good/safe hands. Our team consists of highly qualified and mature individuals.

Campers will be participating in a range of activities which may include the following: keertan darbars, workshops, lectures, arts/crafts, outdoor activities, fitness classes, and any other activities that Sevadaars may deem fit for this camp. All activities will be taking place on Gurudwara property and at no time will campers be given permission to leave Gurudwara grounds unless they are with their respective Parents/Guardians.

No child will be able to participate in the camp without a form signed by their parent/guardian and presented to a Sevadaar on the first day of camp unless they are over the age of 19.
