Our History
Wally & Rosie Sczebel founded Teen Time in 1964 as a recreational program for youths. What began as a small group of youngsters gathering regularly, grew to a club with its own sports teams, intramural program and annual Easter drama/musical production.
Incorporated as a society and registered as a charitable organization in 1969, Teen Time established its first summer camp in 1967 at Moose Lake, Alberta, and has since expanded to offer more camps including riding camp and paintball camps.
In 1974, the current camp location near Dapp, Alberta, was purchased, enabling Teen Time to host hundreds of youth aged 7 to 17 for summer camps.
