Camp URSA - Day Trips
"Getting away from it all" can renew your senses and revitalize your life
Day-to-day, regardless of your circumstances, can become tiring and tedious. The challenges of facing each day with added physical or cognitive limitations can become stressful and demanding. Taking a break from it all, from your daily responsibilities and rehabilitation, is not only a welcome relief, but it's needed to rejuvenate the body, mind and soul.
It is in the spirit of a 'retreat', that Camp URSA was created. A camp designed to provide a relaxing and safe 'get-away' for individuals with disabilities and their families. It is an affordable recreation and respite service, combining the charm of a relaxing country setting with the comfort of modern conveniences. Together, these elements enhance the quality of every activity and everyday during your stay.
Situated on 18-acres of land, nestled in the midst of green forest and rolling hills, the facility is located close to all amenities including emergency services. A 30-minute drive from Calgary, URSA provides transportation to individuals who have limited transport options.
Inviting and including the family and caregivers of individuals with disabilities is crucial for the well-being of everyone involved. They deserve, more than anyone, a chance to renew and revitalize their bodies. The opportunity to visit this facility reduces stress on families and increases family interaction, support and involvement. Together, these have been linked to an improved quality of life.
Camp URSA has a direct impact on the lives of individuals living with disabilities and their families. An opportunity exists for them, not only to get away from their reality for a little while, but a chance for them to try new activities, experience a new environment, make new friends and create memories that will last a lifetime.
