faced by urban Aboriginal youth between the age of 15-24 years of age* in
the Fort Qu’Appelle area. Youth programming is gererally offered Monday through
Friday evenings. A nutrious meal is usually provided to the 15-24 year olds on
Tuesday and Thursday night(youth who are registered with youth program and
who attend the Centre before 5pm on those program days. A variety
of activities are planned by the Youth Program staff and the youth
themselves. All youth (10-29 years old) are welcome to attend on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday evenings to surf the net, work out with weights (no one
under 15 in weight room), and watch and movie or hang out. Some activities

practicing their moves. Contact the Centre for more info. We also have
special outings on a regular basis (ex. trips to Regina -
wonderland amusement centre, paintball, lazertag, rap wars (rap battles and
breakdance competitions, night bowling, etc.) Sometimes events are open to
all youth.
