CUPE Saskatchewan is offering two (2) sponsorships for CUPE member youth to attend the upcoming Saskatchewan Federation of Labour’s Summer Camp on August 9 – 15, 2025, at Shekinah Retreat Centre near Waldheim, SK.
The sponsorship is intended to assist with the financial cost burden associated with camp attendance and covers the registration cost. Sponsorships are available for members of CUPE Local Unions affiliated with CUPE Saskatchewan Division who are not otherwise eligible for other subsidies that may be available through their Local Union.
SFL Summer Camp begins Saturday afternoon, August 9, and ends the following Friday morning, August 15, 2025.
The camp addresses challenges facing youth including social justice and equality issues. It combines learning with cooperative recreation activities and fun. Young people between the ages of 13-16 who are children of union members are eligible to attend. Registration is $750 per camper ($850 for non-affiliates).
