Dear Committee Members,

The YWC are hosting a series of online and in-person events throughout the province to continue building on the momentum since BCFED’s Convention.

On Friday March 24th we will have an online event hosted by our co-chair George Finley! It will be an awesome online social games night on Discord so join us and RSVP here.

Two Asks

  • Share this event forward with your own Young Worker Committees plus share the event on your FB page.

Young Worker Camp

Young Worker Camp is back as the Young Worker Leadership Retreat this year at Loon Lake. The dates are Wednesday September 6th – Friday June 8th and registration will open in June. Please note that there is a limit of 50 young workers only. Tickets will be $500 per person.

Additionally, we ask that you think about affiliate members who are young workers and identify with one or more equity groups like IBPoC, QTIBPoC, 2SLGBTQIA, workers with accessibility considerations, Deaf and others, to help make this year’s retreat as inclusive as possible.

In solidarity,
