Camp Koolaree is a United Church of Canada residential summer camp whose mission is to provide a camp experience in a safe, sustainable and natural setting and to foster a deeper individual connection to Community, Creation and the Creator among campers and staff. We have been at our present site on the West Arm of Kootenay Lake near Nelson, BC since 1931. Our winter office is in Trail, BC, and our campers come mostly from Nelson, Trail, Castlegar, Rossland, Fruitvale and Kaslo, BC, although some do come to us from far and wide.
