The purpose of this note is to summarize and share with the wider academic and non-academic communities our experience over five years, 2014-2018, running the Simon Fraser University Academic Summer Camp for Aboriginal High School Students. In what follows we describe our reasons for developing this outreach activity and provide the goals and objectives of this initiative. To reach out to those members of the community who are planning or already running similar outreach activities, we also provide details about the camp components, including staffing, budgeting, recruiting, and scheduling. In addition, we highlight testimonials by students, parents, and teachers.
