2018 Summer Camp Bondar Challenge Winners
The Roberta Bondar Foundation recognizes Individual Summer Camps registered for the Summer Camp Bondar Challenge, and selects winners from every participating organization.
We also choose Overall Category Winners from each GEM level across all camps to see images in a cross-country Summer Camp Bondar Challenge.
These images may be chosen to travel with The Foundation’s Travelling Exhibition and Learning Experience at selected venues in Canada and internationally.
Congratulations to all participants!
