The Lions Leadership Camp is world-renowned for it’s focus on leadership development. The camp is situated in the Canadian Rocky Mountains near the border of the Provinces of Albert and British Columbia.
The two goals of this camp are to Develop Leadership and Build Community.
The program aims to empower students to embrace their leadership capabilities and make decisions to create positive changes in their communities.
The students who attend this camp are told that they are leaders, and all lessons and activities focus on helping the students to see themselves in that role. Students are guided through self-awareness and esteem building activities to help them recognize their individual talents and abilities. This forms the base for students to learn methods and tools for effective leadership, understanding how to use their individual gifts to lead with confidence.
Students are encouraged to understand the value of their leadership abilities in creating positive change.
Students learn the following:
An international community exists at this camp. That community is nurtured throughout the week so that by the camp’s end, it has become a family. By learning how to build a healthy, happy, caring, and supportive community at camp, students can return and work toward achieving these objectives in their own communities around the world.
Students learn the following about community:
This knowledge is especially vital to students from countries where trust and friendship between neighbours and amongst different ethnic groups does not exist.
In addition to many youths from the Province of Alberta, as part of the Lions Club International Youth Exchange program, students from around the world apply to attend the camp and to experience a family hosting prior to and after camp.
