If you have questions or need assistance in planning your border crossing, please contact Camp Bow-Isle or phone toll-free (877) 943-2442.
Also, please note that children who are traveling with only one parent or with another family should have a notarized letter stating that their parents or legal guardians give permission for their children to travel to and from Canada.
