Location

The BandCamp is about an hour’s drive north of Toronto at the Jackson’s Point Conference Centre¹ on the shores of Lake Simcoe near Keswick. This great location offers a private beach, baseball diamond, basketball court, soccer field, horseshoes, croquet, beach volleyball, an outdoor patio, a campfire area with benches, and a large lawn for lots of outdoor fun and activities. Indoors, we’ll have large and small meeting rooms equipped with pianos and white boards for music instruction, rehearsals, concerts, and indoor program activities.

Accommodation

Rooms at The BandCamp are double occupancy and are in either the main conference centre or the Cedar Lodge.
