Registration for Sasamat's 2027 Leadership programs opens this Friday, October 30!

For over 30 years, our Leadership programs have helped local teens build confidence, real-world skills and lasting friendships. Students meet one evening a week with their instructors, then put those skills to work on weekends at Sasamat Outdoor Centre and in the community.

What students take away:
- Emergency First Aid and RCABC canoe certification
- Documented volunteer hours
- Hands on experience taking practiced leadership into the real world

Leadership One (Grade 10+): Tuesdays 7–9pm at Port Moody Recreation Complex or Douglas College Coquitlam. Starts January 12.

Leadership Two is back for 2027 (for Leadership One grads or equivalent experience): Wednesdays 7–9pm at Douglas College Coquitlam. Starts January 6, with a winter camping trip and a spring canoe trip.

To start, you only pay the class registration fee. Weekend events are added as you go.

Today we announce the retirement of long-serving staff member, the one and only Peter Hiebert! Peter has worked at Sasamat since 1998- that’s 28 summers, which is the longest serving staff member in Sasamat’s history!

Coming to us originally from Evans Lake, Peter has been a constant at Sasamat for decades, offering his wealth of expertise and knowledge to hundreds of staff and thousands of campers. Canoe Instructor, Transportation Coordinator, and Outdoor Education Instructor are just a few of the job titles he’s had, though everyone knows Peter does a little bit of everything around here! Beyond Sasamat, Peter has spent his career extensively involved with the BC Camps Association and the Recreational Canoe Association of BC, providing endless hours of service to those organizations during his "spare" time.

Peter has truly embodied the spirit and values of camp over his career. His calm presence, willingness to always help, masterful problem solving, and tremendous wealth of outdoor skills will be sorely missed. Please join us in congratulating him on a truly remarkable camp career, and the wishing the best of days ahead in retirement!

🍩 A sweet treat that makes a BIG difference! ❤️🏕️

This August, we're teaming up with Doughnut Love to help send more kids to camp!

When you purchase the Birthday Cake Old Fashioned throughout the month of August, a portion of the proceeds will go directly to Sasamat Outdoor Centre's Send a Kid to Camp program. Every doughnut purchased helps make outdoor adventures, lifelong friendships, and unforgettable camp memories possible for children who might not otherwise have the opportunity.

So treat yourself to a delicious doughnut, and know you're helping create life-changing camp experiences—one bite at a time! 💙

A huge thank you to Doughnut Love for partnering with us to make camp more accessible for everyone. Happy 5th Birthday!

Cheers to the spring!

We have had some summer level hot days so far, our spring team knows how important it is to stay hydrated!

We always encourage drinking plenty of water on busy activity days … we don’t recommend milk so much

This is a Northern Alligator Lizard. We don’t see them often at camp, but were thrilled to see one today!

They are common in southwestern B.C., particularly in Douglas-fir and hemlock forests. They are found as far north as the Thompson River valley and inland to the Kootenays.

So cool!!!
