UBC AtoM

YWCA Metro Vancouver began its residential camping activities in 1913 with the YWCA Girls Camp at Copper Cove, near Horseshoe Bay. After selling its Copper Cove site in 1936, the YWCA rented campsites on Galiano Island for several years, then at various leased campsites around British Columbia. The first YaWaCa camp program was offered in 1962 at Camp Potlatch, Howe Sound. Camp YaWaCa was run at rented facilities until 1971, at which point it became clear that finding a suitable rental space long-term would be infeasible. YWCA Metro Vancouver began site planning and development of the YaWaCa Outdoor Centre in 1971. Opened in 1972, the YaWaCa Outdoor Centre hosted Camp YaWaCa over the summer for girls along with other YWCA programs, including a counsellor-in-training program, a pregnant teenagers’ retreat, a camp for single mothers and their children, and a recreational program for adults with intellectual disabilities. The Outdoor Centre was also rentable to non-YWCA outdoor groups from September to June. The YaWaCa Outdoor Centre closed in 1983 due to financial constraints.

Subseries documents Camp YaWaCa and the development and management of the YaWaCa Outdoor Centre.

Records consist of reports, meeting minutes, promotional materials, photographs, and other records arising from running Camp YaWaCa and the YaWaCa Outdoor Centre.
