Weekend Retreat:

We are thrilled to offer this exciting opportunity for high school students to join us in addressing the urgent issue of climate change, with a specific focus on water conservation and sustainability.

This retreat is designed to provide a platform for passionate youth to actively engage in climate action, gain valuable community service hours, and develop leadership skills alongside like-minded individuals.

Through a series of educational activities and collaborative initiatives, participants will have the chance to make a tangible impact in tackling the climate crisis.

Participants in the Virtual CYC program will gain access to our new CYC Virtual Hub: an exclusive online classroom that provides multiple opportunities for high school students to earn over 20 community service hours, both at home and in your neighbourhood!
