We made some changes to our calendar of events on February 14th because we realized that Applefest had been set for the last weekend of September this year.

We've decided to do a flashback to the 70's themed weekend. Hippies, tie dye, and a high school dance party. We will make tie dyed t-shirts. All the usual fun stuff to do, like craft time and scavenger hunts will round out this weekend as the best Schools Out party ever. And pancake breakfast on the Sunday – simply because School's OUT for Summer!!!!

This week is a big party. We're going to have a Digital Scavenger Hunt to help you all commemorate a great week. BRING YOUR CAMERAS AND SMART PHONES – This is a family competition. First family to complete it wins a prize. Fireworks will help us celebrate with a Bang. We will have Casino time for the adults (blackjack and poker). And we will play chocolate bar bingo as well. To add to the fun we will create our own rockets and launch them off to see whose can go the highest. Other games, crafts, wagon rides, movie night and ice cream socials all make this an amazing week.

This is the fourth annual Olympics on Saturday the 7th -- potato sack races, water balloon tosses, and returning from last year the super inflatable obstacle course - $5 per person for unlimited access to the obstacle course - the other Olympic activities are included in the camping fee. We'll also be having a pancake breakfast on Sunday for $5 per person to feed all the hungry athletes and to raise money for Care Camps. Our regular events will also be happening all week long to keep the family entertained.

We will have a weekend dedicated to chocolates and sweets. Our super popular chocolate fountain will be back with other delectable treats and cakes to cure any sweet tooth cravings. We will set up a sweets table and chocolate fountain during the day on Saturday and have other cakes and cookies and yummies available throughout the weekend as prizes and rewards for completing a special scavenger hunt. Chocolate chip pancakes will be the sweet treat at the Sunday morning Pancake Breakfast.

Decorate your site – cabin, trailer or tent site. We will have a later wagon ride this weekend to view all the
lights so please decorate - we wanna see the lights people!!!! We will have Find the Elf on the Shelf
throughout the week as a unique kind of scavenger hunt. A Secret Santa present exchange will have all the kids happy. PLEASE BRING A PRESENT SPECIFICALLY FOR YOUR CHILD WRAPPED WITH THEIR NAME ON IT TO EXCHANGE ON SATURDAY – Make it a secret so each child gets something their parents know they want. Christmas themed crafts will make everyone happy. To round out the week we will continue our fun activities and events with themed crafts and movie nights and wagon rides etc.

This weekend is such a blast. We will be bringing out the slip ‘n' slide. The wagon will be loaded with water fun – a huge water gun fight with water guns on the wagon and water guns on the ground. Bring your own guns or water bottles (OR HOSES). Biggest splash contest will be loads of fun – soaking more than just those jumping into the water. Movies and crafts and all of our usual activities will be part of the fun.

I am a sucker for colour. Whenever I see a shirt or a painting or anything at all that's rainbow or a bunch of different colours it makes me happy. So, we decided to theme this weekend all around colour. The fireworks will be a burst of rainbow colours in the sky. For craft we will be painting with colours (I am trying to get a professional painter to come and do a painting class for anyone interested so if that happens there will be a charge added for the canvas/paint). We will do Tie Dying as well one morning to make this weekend even more colour focused. Bring your own white shirt or pillow case or one can be purchased from us.

We will all be joining in the fun – dress up as your favourite super hero or super villain. Play our defeat your villain game - everyone gets to pick a super hero card and then they have to adventure around the campground until they find the villain card that matches their super hero. When you find it, come tell us where you found it for a prize! And a digital Bingo game – everyone gets a bingo card with pictures of super heroes on it. The goal is to get a line of photos – bonus' for those who get a full card.

So, this weekend is all dedicated to just being a kid. We'll have a balloon artist who will make balloon art – animals or swords etc. We are planning face painting again. And the inflatable obstacle course. Lots of games, crafts and other fun things to do all weekend long. Please note, the face painter will have their own charge. To top it off, a pancake breakfast on Sunday morning.

Come enjoy some amazing corn on the cob on us. Lather it with butter and salt and eat it right on the spot, dripping all down your face, or take a plate of it back to your campsite to enjoy with your steaks and baked potatoes. We will have a corn themed scavenger hunt and enjoy some yummy popcorn during movie night. All the regular games and activities as usual as well.

We have rockets for the kids. They get to decorate and build their own rocket and we will have a rocket launching time to see whose rocket can get the highest. We will have a limbo contest to see who can go the lowest. A fireworks display will go up high in the sky. And we'll have other fun games to keep the kids busy this weekend as well!

With so many wineries in the area, many people come and stay here and then go take a tour of all the wineries. Well, we wanted to add to the fun by having our very own wine tasting right at the campground We are attempting to arrange a wine tour bus to take people around during the day and then we will do our wine tasting party back at the campground again. We had a guest who had just retired from the LCBO and told me that it was the best and most fun wine tasting he'd ever been to..... if you like wine, and laughter – come check it out. $15 per person charge for the wine tasting at the KOA. Details on the tour around the County to follow.

This is one of my favourite weekends. It's where we get to reward all of the Value Kard holders with a free night of camping. If you are a valid Value Kard holder and a regular of the Brighton KOA, you come camping on Friday night, then Saturday night is on us. We want to thank all of you campers who camp here on such frequency that we feel like you are family. As such, this weekend is not available for booking online. You must call us to reserve. We will have lots of games and activities going on as well and a pancake breakfast on Sunday morning.

Took us a while to figure out what we wanted to do since Applefest is moved to the last weekend of the month this year and we finally feel totally excited about an Amazing Race weekend. We will have a series of events set up and families can compete together against other family teams around the campground. Be prepared to eat or drink something that looks totally sketchy! And bring your physical prowess to do the other activities faster than the other families. The first place winning family will be awarded a prize. And of course, bragging rights.

This is a very popular weekend in this region as Applefest is very well known and a big deal in Brighton. To add to the fun, we will have apple bobbing set up for anyone who wants to test their skills. Craft time will be making caramel apples. Expect all the usual activities and games as well. We will also have a pancake breakfast – topped with apples if you choose on Sunday morning.

This is an amazing weekend to remember all the things we have to be thankful for. Honestly, what
better thing to be thankful for than spending time with family and eating Turkey!!! We have lots of fun
events planned for this Thanksgiving Long Weekend: pumpkin bowling, pumpkin ring tossing, crafts,
scavenger hunts/games, wagon rides, movie night, and the ultimate catered turkey dinner with all the fixings. And even more fun added is that it's also our 1st Halloween. Saturday is dedicated to Halloween and Sunday to Thanksgiving including the delicious turkey dinner.

This is our final weekend for the season. We are excited to celebrate an early Halloween as our 2nd Halloween weekend in a row. We will have pumpkin carving, decorating your site, and trick or treating in full costume. Bring your decorations, but please keep them age appropriate. We have a lot of younger kids at our campground so nothing too scary please. Bring your costumes and please remember to also bring candy to hand out to all the trick or treaters. We'll be doing another late night scary wagon ride which I know will be a HUGE hit again because we scared so many of you in 2016 and 2017 – it was so fun!!!

Racing on dirt...as it should be! Located only 10 minutes from the campground, you won't want to miss the opportunity to see these races. The Brighton Speedway hosts all sorts of different kinds of races, so be sure to check out their schedule in the link below to get full details.
