You are invited to join us at CAMP SUMMIT in the beautiful Squamish Valley, British Columbia for a two-day summer camp style Leadership Summit with POW Ambassadors, Partners, Chapter Leaders and Special Guests.
It's time to get our POW Canada community back together at last in a unique outdoor setting that will allow us to connect (elbow tap), get inspired and learn from our brilliant guests and speakers who will generously share their knowledge with us to set us up for the year ahead. Plus some beers and good times to be had.
Once you arrive at Camp Summit POW will have everything covered for the next 3 days.
