The McDougall Creek ripped through West Kelowna in August 2023, destroying not only homes and property but also Camp OAC.

In operation since 1950, Camp OAC is a ministry of the Anglican Diocese of Kootenay. The plan was to have the camp operational for this summer, however, that will not be happening.

Camp director Ian Dixon, Archbishop Lynne McNaughton and a team of volunteers have been securing necessary permits, overseeing the remediation of the site, and replacing key infrastructure, in the hopes of opening the camp. Two cabin buildings have already been ordered and will be delivered to the site later this summer.
