Join us for an exciting engagement opportunity hosted by the Ontario RDC!
This event is for Certified (or soon to be Certified) Champions in the YMCA Program Leadership System! This unique gathering is focused on professional development, practice, and social networking, providing an invaluable opportunity to enhance your skills and connect with fellow leaders.
Event Highlights Professional Development: Engage in insightful sessions and workshops led by YMCA experts to elevate your leadership capabilities. Practice: Participate in hands-on activities that will allow you to apply Champion concepts and techniques in real-time. Social Networking: Build meaningful connections with peers and mentors in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Experience the magic of Camp, this even is hosted at YMCA Cedar Glen Outdoor Centre, where you’ll enjoy the perfect blend of surprise and delight amidst nature. This event promises to be both enriching and enjoyable, leaving you inspired and rejuvenated.
Arrival and Kick off is 12:30pm on Wednesday, with lunch provided, and our first session beginning at 2:00pm. Departure will be after 1:00pm on Friday.
We will be fully immersed in the Camp experience which includes Camp lodging on bunk beds (I promise, it’s worth it). Single Occupancy is standard, but we have the option to double up if you want to be with a friend!
Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to grow, learn, and connect.
We have 24 Single occupancy beds available! This leaves room for at least 1 Champion from each of our 14 YMCAs, with an option for more on a first come first serve basis. If Champions are interested in double occupancy and sharing space, we can also accommodate this way (and extra people). Please reach out to Jenny Goodwin (jenny.goodwin@ymcagta.org) if this is what you’re looking for.
Note: travel is not included in the fee
We look forward to seeing you there!
