Our Mission
To provide learning opportunities and hands-on experiences that help current and future community leaders gain a stronger understanding of Big Canoe while developing the leadership skills essential for success in volunteer settings.
Testimonials
Perhaps the best indicator of the program's quality comes from comments by some of the 498 graduates from the last 21 years.
"The opportunity to gain the knowledge specified in the objectives was excellent and impressive."
"I thought I knew a lot about Big Canoe since I owned a lot for many years before I moved here full time and I had served on POA committees, but I was wrong - I did not realize how much I did not know. Thanks for the experience."
"I was hesitant to take the class. I thought it would be BC propaganda. I was wrong! It was great! Thanks for your hard work."
