Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation

2011 Youth Outdoor Leadership AND Conservation School

Leaders Rise With Opportunity’

 

The Camp: For more than 30 years the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation Youth Outdoor Leadership and Conservation School has introduced youth to outdoor skills and introduced them to wildlife management techniques from wildlife professionals.  In 2003 the School added a leadership component.  Some of the activities that youth will participate in include: archery, canoeing, wilderness survival skills, map and compass, fisheries studies, wildlife management and biology, canoeing, wilderness camping skills, cooking on one burner stove or fire, wild plant use, plus much more. 

 

The outdoor skills are used to facilitate leadership qualities that can be used by youth at the branch, school and community level.  It is important for youth to recognize that while attending the school they will be expected to willingly participate in all of the classes and activities in a positive and constructive manner.

 

** In order to apply for the SWF Leadership and Conservation School youth must hold a valid branch or provincial membership in the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation.

     Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation Conducts a girl's camp during the first week of July and a boy's camp during the second week of July.  Both camps are held at the Prince Albert Wildlife Federation facilities just north of
Prince Albert.
    Both schools focus on outdoor skills and wildlife management.  Some of the activities that the student will participate in include: handgun, small bore and trap shooting, archery, canoeing, wilderness survival skills, map and compass, fisheries studies, wildlife management biology, wild plant use and wilderness camping skills.  These activities are used to facilititate the development of leadership qualities that can be used by youth at the branch, school and community level.

B.  
     Zone 4 and 5 Alberta Fish and Game Association conducts a Youth Conservation Camp for both boys and girls during both the second and fourth weeks of July for students
that are ages 12-16 at the time of the camp.  All campers will row boats, learn to handle shotguns, rifles and handguns safely, hike, fish and camp in a wilderness outdoor setting.
    
The camp is conducted from the Narrow Lake Conservation Centre north-east of
Westlock, AB.

These Youth Conservation Camps emphasize how much humanity and nature depend on each other.  Campers earn how all living things interact and look at their responsibilities for the future.

Re: Contribution of canoes & kayaks

We the Lloydminster & District Fish and Game Association located on Highway 16 Yellowhead route in
the City of Lloydminster, SK/AB are a family organization of about 1200 members strong who promote
safe and educational outdoor programs including boating, hunting, fishing, archery to youth and families
in our community. We contribute to youth scholarships and sponsor their attendance in outdoor
conservation education camps.

Recently we, in co-operation with your Lloydminster Store #341 associate dealer Mr. John Kavanagh,
made a contribution toward the purchase of canoes (2010) and kayaks (2011) to be placed at an
associate organization, the Narrow Lake Youth Conservation Education Centre near Slave Lake, Alberta.
This year the camps will be held July 3 - 9 and July 17 - 23 with about 60 co-ed youth attending each
camp.

John has been an exemplary example of making this contribution to our organization and other groups
with youth related activities. John has been one of the most proactive dealers you have had at this store
since inception and we believe he truly believes in youth promotion and education.

We sincerely appreciate John and his very capable senior staff with the manner in which the
contribution was made. This Canadian Tire outlet will remain strong and in the forefront of competition
with dealers like John.

            We feel we need to express our appreciation of the co-operative relationship we have  had in Store #341 and should be a fitting example for other dealers.
