JACK'S HALL / WRECK WARD

Kamp Kiwanis Calgary provides "hostel style" rentals. Rental rates vary based upon the facility requested.

The Jack's Hall - Wreck Ward is a new rental facility opened in September, 2006 at Kamp Kiwanis. The Jack's Hall - Wreck Ward contains two separate rental facilities: The Wreck Ward and Lower Jack's Hall. There is not inside access between the upstairs Wreck Ward and the downstairs Lower Jack's Hall.

The Wreck Ward is the summer camp infimary and health centre and therefore is not available during the summer camp season (beginning July-third week of August of each year) at all for rentals.
