ACCA Summer Camp Sponsorships

At EQUS, we believe in the importance of involving youth in the co-operative values that guide us. Each year EQUS sponsors four youth from our membership who are interested in learning about the co-operative values, principles, and business model to attend the Alberta Community and Co-operative Association (ACCA) Youth Leadership Camp.

The program provides an opportunity for youth to develop leadership and teamwork skills and build confidence, relationships and communities. The seven-day camps take place at the Goldeye Centre near Nordegg and are for youth ages 11 - 18.

This year, camps are scheduled to begin June 30, running through to mid-July:

• Grad Camp: June 30 - July 6
• Pre-Teen Camp: June 30 - July 6
• Teen A: July 6 - July 12
• Youth: July 12 - July 18

If you're an EQUS member and you have a youth in your family looking to develop their leadership skills, build friendships, and learn about community and co-operatives encourage them to request a sponsorship!

To request sponsorship, send an email to communications@equs.ca and let us know why you would like to attend the ACCA Youth Leadership Camp. Requests must be received by Friday, May 6, 2022 to be considered.
