What do a group of Canadian women, brought together by a mutual interest in vintage trailer camping do to pass the time during the deep, darks depths of a long and cold Canadian winter? They "Snow Camp", that's what!

Actually, creating snow sculptures is one of the many fun events that members of the group "Girl Camp Canada" dream up to bond and have fun with fellow members. This all-women, all-Canadian group established back in the Spring of 2013, is the epitome of fun and friendship. "Enjoying the safety and sharing the fun of vintage trailer camping together" is just part of the group's motto. Not limited to swapping stories, the gals share renovation tips and ideas about vintage trailering. The group includes women with varying degrees of experience when it comes to tackling, rebuilding and maintaining vintage trailers of yesteryear.

Newbies are always welcomed and find themselves gleaning insight into the in's and out's of what it takes to make a safe and informed vintage trailer purchase. The thrill of the hunt for the perfect trailer may bring the members together but the camaraderie and support offered amongst the members keeps this group a tight knit one. Fortunately for me, being accepted into this warm and supportive group of women has been humbling. These women are truly amazing and I feel honoured to have forged some special and unforgettable friendships.

Even when a member is on a warm and tropical vacation,
her mind and her heart isn't far from our Girl Camp Canada group. |
It truly is wonderful what a great group of gals can create during a snowy, Canadian winter eh? Camp on my GCC sistas!

ReplyDeleteMe too Adrienne! See you around the campfire ;)
DeleteGCC is a great group! I cannot believe we will be celebrating our first anniversary in March:)
ReplyDeleteGreat post Sylvia.... for the long cold winters in many parts of Canada, it is fun to find a way to "camp" all year, or at least, think about it, and for Canadian girls GCC is the place to be! Cheers~
