Making a difference, one paw at a time - fundraising activities


Count
At West Canada Creek Campground, we believe every pet deserves a safe, loving home. That’s why 100% of our $5 pet fee goes directly to support local no-kill animal shelters. Every wagging tail, every happy bark, and every cozy purr matters—your stay helps provide food, medical care, and second chances for animals in need.
🐶 Stay. Give. Make a Difference.

We’re inviting campers to help us give back! We’ll be collecting donated items all season long for our Chinese Auction. Whether it’s a gift basket, new camping gear, or a handmade treasure, your generosity makes a difference. Spread the word, donate, and participate—together, we can change lives!
Because camping isn’t just about making memories—it’s about making a difference.


We’re making giving back fun! Throughout the season, we’ll be hosting exciting campground events

Every donation brings us closer to giving these animals the love & care they deserve!
Paws for a Cause is dedicated to the love and joy that our furry companions bring into our lives. This cause is especially close to our hearts as we honor the memory of our beloved Sayla, Boss, and Soleil. Each of them brought unconditional love, laughter, and adventure to our lives, and we continue to cherish their memory by helping other animals find the love and care they deserve.
