Staff

Les Scouts Urbains est animé par une équipe de personnes qui aiment la ville autant que les jeunes qui la découvrent. Nos animateurs et monitrices sont choisis pour leur sens des responsabilités, leur créativité et leur capacité à créer un environnement chaleureux et sécuritaire.

Une direction présente sur le terrain

L’équipe de direction est sur place chaque jour pour soutenir les groupes, ajuster les activités au quotidien et s’assurer que tout le monde vit une expérience positive. Nous sommes disponibles pour les parents avant, pendant et après la journée de camp.

Moniteurs et monitrices

Chaque groupe de 6 campeurs est accompagné d’un·e animateur·trice qui connaît bien la ville, le fonctionnement de la Transports en Commun et les réalités de la vie urbaine. Nous offrons une formation complète sur la sécurité, la gestion de groupe et l’animation de jeux exploratoires.

Programme CIT

Les jeunes du programme d’aspirant animateur (CIT) soutiennent les groupes plus jeunes et développent leurs propres compétences en animation, en leadership et en navigation urbaine. Plusieurs de nos meilleurs membres du personnel ont commencé comme campeurs et CIT à Les Scouts Urbains.

Riley

Hey there! I’m Riley and I started this camp. I love exploring the city and discovering new places to check out. I’m passionate about movies, spikeball and making people laugh. I’m really excited for campers to learn how to use the Transports en Commun because it unlocks a whole new world of adventure at that age. I’m super pumped about our team this year, and I can’t wait for the campers to be blown away by what we have in store. 

 

 

Sam

My name is Sam (Big Sam). I’ve been with Les Scouts Urbains for a loooooong time. I don’t know anyone who knows Montréal more than I do. My biggest achievement when I was younger would’ve been winning a school wide geography competition in grade 9. I love geography.

Zeinab

Hi! My name is Zeinab aka Dr. Z, and this is my 4th summer at Les Scouts Urbains! I study at the University of British Columbia but I grew up in Toronto, around Don Mills and Eglinton, right by my favourite place – the Ontario Science Centre! When I was in middle school, I got to hold the olympic flame and march around my school. I even got some pretty cute merch out of it 🙂

Reilly

Gabe

Hey my name is Gabriel but I usually go by Gabe, I am 22 years old and grew up in Little Portugal/Annex. When I was in high school, I was obsessed with hockey and won a tournament in Pittsburgh which was so much fun. Feel free to talk to me about any topic (with reason of course) as I invite all new ideas.

David

Hi, I’m David! I’m from the west end of Montréal in the Kingsway, between Royal York and Old Mill station. I’ve always been interested in sports and movies, and when I was younger I would spend over 4 hours doing sports everyday. I also enjoy exploring the city and my favourite location would have to be Kensington Market!

Julia

Hey! My name is Julia and I’ve been working at Les Scouts Urbains since last summer. Growing up I lived all over the city so I pride myself on knowing all the little pockets of different neighbourhoods. I love books, music, movies and biking around the city. When I was 15 I won an award at the science center for writing and performing a rap about the importance of learning chemistry. 

Sasha G

Hey, my name is Sasha and I study electrical engineering at the University of Edinburgh! I grew up in Montréal near Bayview and Lawrence and I have loved exploring places in the city. When I was 13 I went to England for an exchange program for 2 weeks and I got to visit cool sites and try new foods! I love traveling and exploring new places!

I am currently a student at Brock University for Sport Management and am also a member of the Brock Rugby Team

Andrew

Hi my name is Andrew (shrew), I grew up in Greektown, though more recently I have been spending a lot of time in the Annex since that is where my school is. I started playing the alto saxophone in grade 6 and have loved it ever since even getting a few music awards at my school.

Alexa

Hey I’m Alexa or Lex, I grew up right in downtown Toronto, running around since forever. When I was between 11, I was really into gymnastics, even though I might not have been the best, but I can still do a darn good cartwheel! 

Lulu

Hey there! I’m Lulu, Toronto’s resident fun-seeker and poutine connoisseur. When I’m not dazzling people with my wit or navigating the Transports en Commun like a ninja, you’ll find me hunting down the city’s best coffee spots and charming my way into the coolest events. Life’s a whirlwind here, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Ask me about the harmonica in my backpack! 

Connor

Hey there! My name is Connor, I’m 20 years old and I’m from the west end of Toronto. I like to eat sushi, and when I was 14 I ran a triathlon. This is my second summer at Les Scouts Urbains, and my favourite location to visit with the kiddos would have to be Graffiti Alley.

Will

Hey my name’s Will and I grew up in the Regal Heights neighbourhood around Dufferin and St Clair. My biggest accomplishment as a kid was winning division 2 in select hockey to advance to division 1. My claim to fame for all you gamers is finishing the Fortnite season 1 battle pass. Super excited for the summer!

Belle

Howdy! I’m Belle, the OCAD sensation known for my perpetual coolness and flair! You’ll spot me rocking my signature sunglasses, rain or shine, because the future I’m designing is just that bright. Above each knee, I’ve got a tattoo that tells the story of my life: a smiley face for when I’m acing my art projects and a sad face for when I realizes it’s going to rain on beach day 🙁

Kyra

Hi my name is Kyra (Kyr)! I grew up in the Beaches and Scarborough. When I was 12, I would read books that were over 500 pages in a day! My passion for reading has let me have a true love for adventure. My favourite place in Montréal is either St Lawrence Market or the Montréal Reference library! Let’s go explore!

Fin

Hi! I’m Fin, I’m a jazz guitar student at the University of Montréal and I play guitar and drums in a few bands. I grew up in the west end near high park and I’m now living in Kensington market. When I was 11, I was put in the Guinness book of world records for the most raccoons set free from a zoo(the high park zoo). If you ever see a raccoon in Toronto, it’s probably a descendant of the ones I let out
