Adventure Camps

There are several Adventure Camps available to youth that qualify, for camp sponsorship through the Rotary Club of Edmonton. The camps are developed to allow the youth to explore a variety of areas that will help then to achieve greater understanding of global citizenship, human rights and technical areas. The Adventure camps offered are:
 
  • Adventures in Agriculture (Regina, SK) in November
    This program is held at the end of November during the internationally acclaimed Canadian Western Agribition Livestock Show and Sale in Regina. Students from across Western Canada have the opportunity to visit Agribition, tour major agriculture based industries, and participate in networking and information sessions conducted by agriculture industry professionals and business leaders. The program is designed to broaden knowledge and understanding of the multi-faceted agricultural sector, environmental issues, and the challenge of providing food for the world.

  • Adventures in Citizenship (Ottawa, ON) in May
    This annual event provides a unique opportunity for a selected group of young Canadians to come together and gain a better understanding of our country. Through meetings with political leaders, senior officials and others, they learn a great deal about the workings of our democratic institutions. Through meeting one another and having discussions among themselves, they learn to appreciate the diversity of Canada and the privileges and responsibilities of citizenship.  https://rotaryottawa.com/page/welcome-to-the-rotary-adventure-in-citizenship-program
  • Adventure in Human Rights (Winnipeg, MN) in August
    The mandate and goal of the program is to provide students with an opportunity to explore human rights issues within the CMHR. Although the majority of the program will be held at the museum, there will be visits to various non-governmental organizations and other Winnipeg locations in order to see positive action in progress, in the area of human rights. At the end of the program, RAHR students will have an opportunity to design an action plan that they could implement within their schools. They will also network with other students and agencies, thus increasing their human rights network. https://rahr5550.ca/
