Maps and Directions

Important Information and Drop-off Instructions for Black Jack and Island Adventure Camps:

Camps begin at 0900 (9am) hours with sign-in at the waterfront in Quyon, Québec. Please consult with the office if travel considerations necessitate early/late arrivals.

Grand Return:

Black Jack will return to her dock, at the Britannia Yacht Club, Ottawa, at around 1200 hours (12:00 noon). Parents and friends are encouraged to arrive at the Britannia Yacht Club one hour early to witness the return of the Black Jack complete with sailing demonstration prior to her arrival at the dock (subject to weather conditions).

Sleeping Accommodations:

The sleeping facility is aboard a floating bunk/galley barge with barrack-style accommodations in one large great room. All participants, male and female, share this common sleeping facility. This arrangement demands that all trainees respect each other’s privacy and security. Violations of this ethic will result in immediate removal from the program. Proper sleeping attire is required. Change rooms are available and must be used.
