Lost Children Service
Provided by volunteers from the Girl Guides of Canada, Scouts Canada and St. John Ambulance (Region 07, Outaouais). To find the Lost Children Service, look for a sign with a teddy bear on it. We suggest that you talk to your children about this service and register them immediately when you arrive at a site.
