In photos - It's on! The amazing Camp Courage revs up for its 20th year of empowerment as 25 campers prepare to step into the world of first responders!
With activities planned with the Canadian Coast Guard, EHS, police and fire days ahead, campers will experience challenges, work as individuals and as a team, and get a feel for what these agencies do and how they work within their communities, while guided by mentors, many of whom are former campers now working as first responders!
As such, the encouragement and exposure will show these eager campers that they can become a first responder, the door is open to challenge and overcome.
"Goals and Objectives
The primary purpose of the camp is to introduce young women to careers as first responders.
The camp will aim to provide information, inspiration, education and opportunities to experience the physical demands, thereby allowing a more accurate perception of what it takes to act in these roles.
The ultimate goal is that young women will leave with a sense of empowerment and the confidence to believe that they can achieve any goal, career or dream they desire." - Camp Courage
