 Henri Audet has been the Director of Camp Kirk since it began in 1993. With over 30 years of experience in the field of recreational camping, Henri brings a wealth of knowledge and depth to Camp Kirk. Aside from his direct involvement in the daily routine of camp during the summer, he also acts as Executive Director for The Friends of The Learning Disabled, Camp Kirk, a registered charitable corporation which operates Camp Kirk. Henri is ably assisted by his wife of 29 years, Jane, who herself has over 25 years of experience in camping and in education. Jane was a member of the faculty at The Bishop Strachan School in Toronto as a teacher, as Head of Physical and Health Education, as Athletic Director, as coach, as guidance counsellor and, more recently, as Head of Student Services. She now holds the position of Vice-Principal School Life at Greenwood College School in Toronto.Dr. Sian Phillips, Ph.D.,C.Psych. was Camp Kirk's Assistant Director for the first three years of the camp's existence. She is now the consulting psychologist for the camp. Her time as a staff member with the Integra Foundation's Camp Towhee, her experience at Camp Kirk and her continued involvement in the field of children's mental health through her own private practice in Kingston, Ontario. makes Sian an invaluable resource and support.  Counsellors, program instructors and support staff make up the Camp Kirk family and they are chosen primarily for their keen interest and ability to work with children who have special needs. Fully qualified where necessary, each year the entire staff attends an eight day intensive pre camp staff training session where they participate in team building exercises, combining resources from within and from outside Camp Kirk.A very high staff/camper ratio (29/36) helps to provide the camp with an intimacy and supervision not found at most other camps.
