Summer Programs

Welcome back to summer! Our summer youth and community programs are designed for individuals to come and experience this great town of ours and all that it has to offer. Activities will be preventative in nature and are planned with the objectives of developing youth awareness in the areas of leadership, community, heritage, intercultural understanding, literacy, team work, self awareness, risk-taking, individual skill development, volunteerism, safety, environmental issues, and the arts.

Youth will participate in group and individual activities in and around the town of Fort Macleod, focusing on teaching youth the values of community involvement and healthy active lifestyles and relationships.
