CUPE Saskatchewan is offering two (2) sponsorships for CUPE member youth to attend the upcoming Saskatchewan Federation of Labour’s Summer Camp on August 5 to 11, 2022, at Shekinah Retreat Centre near Waldheim, SK.
The sponsorship is intended to assist with the financial cost burden associated with camp attendance. Sponsorships are available for members of CUPE Local Unions affiliated with CUPE Saskatchewan Division who are not otherwise eligible for other subsidies that may be available through their Local Union.

The camp addresses challenges facing youth including social justice and equality issues. It combines learning with cooperative recreation activities and fun. Young people between the ages of 13-16 who are children of union members are eligible to attend. Registration is $550 per camper ($650 for non-affiliates).
NOTE: All campers, counsellors and camp staff must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
