Arrowhead Camp Directors and Staff

Most of our staff were Arrowhead campers, and have ‘grown up’ with us over the years.

Our Camp Staff

Our camp staff consists of exceptional young people who have been very carefully chosen based on their qualifications, personality, maturity and sense of responsibility. All are certified in First Aid and CPR.

All Arrowhead staff have as their goal the safest and happiest camp experience possible for every camper. Because our counsellors are also instructors in one of our activities, they get to know every camper.

Our Senior Leadership Team

Pat Birnie: Owner / Director

pAt has been involved in camping since 1982 and has been a Counsellor, Section Director, Program Director and Outdoor Centre Director at Camp Tawingo since 1991.

Assuming ownership of the Camp in 2003, Pat works hard to ensure that all of the amazing and fun activities campers, staff and parents expect continue to be a part of the Arrowhead experience.
