Youth Leadership Program

Dedicated to personal growth, we believe having self-esteem is the first step to becoming a leader. Our Youth Leadership Program combines leadership training, teamwork, self-government and volunteer placement to help build confidence – and connections. Volunteer placements include a variety of different places and tasks, such as assisting at our Camp Awesome Day Camps, assisting with Play Zone, working on youth led initiatives and volunteering at City of Selkirk special events (Canada Day, Waterfront Concerts, etc).

During the Wednesday evening development sessions, participants will learn and work on their leadership skills and teamwork, through games, activities and lessons. Throughout the summer, they can choose different initiatives they want to volunteer with. Youth may choose how frequently and how many hours they would like to volunteer. Commitment is flexible. Some youth may use their volunteer hours towards credit for school (Com munity Service SIP credit).

\r\n\tSome visual components of WP Go Maps use 3rd party libraries which are loaded over the network. At present the libraries are Google Maps, Open Street Map, jQuery DataTables and FontAwesome. When loading resources over a network, the 3rd party server will receive your IP address and User Agent string amongst other details. Please refer to the Privacy Policy of the respective libraries for details on how they use data and the process to exercise your rights under the GDPR regulations.\r\n<\/p>\r\n
\r\n\tWP Go Maps uses jQuery DataTables to display sortable, searchable tables, such as that seen in the Advanced Marker Listing and on the Map Edit Page. jQuery DataTables in certain circumstances uses a cookie to save and later recall the \"state\" of a given table - that is, the search term, sort column and order and current page. This data is held in local storage and retained until this is cleared manually. No libraries used by WP Go Maps transmit this information.\r\n<\/p>\r\n
