Camp Eclipse: OUT in the Woods

Camp Eclipse is a four day leadership retreat for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth and their allies, held each August at the Brother Brennan Environmental Centre.

Through their participation in a variety of workshops and activities, campers, youth leaders, and mentors develop and enhance their leadership skills and their knowledge of queer history, activism, sexual health, healthy coping strategies, and so on. The nature of the workshops, facilitated by the mentors and youth leaders, varies from year to year, while maintaining a focus on leadership, personal growth, activism, and advocacy.

We welcome applications from campers (ages 16 - 24), youth leaders (ages 18 - 24), and mentors (ages 25+) of all sexual orientations, gender expressions, and gender identities from across Newfoundland and Labrador.

Apply now: https://forms.gle/16caP1qJUhcmnED39

Land Acknowledgement

St. John’s is home to a rich, diverse, and vibrant urban Indigenous community. Located on the ancestral and unceded territory of the Beothuk, the lands and waters in and around the City have traditionally served as a gathering place for the Mi’kmaq. The broader region of Newfoundland and Labrador continues to be home to diverse Indigenous Peoples, including First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. We honour and pay respect to the past, present, and future caretakers of these territories.

Thank you to First Light NL for this acknowledgment.

Labour Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that Canada and its colonies, including the Newfoundland and Labrador shipbuilding and cod fishery industries, are built on the brutality of forced and unpaid labour willfully extracted from people of African descent and their relations through trans-Atlantic enslavement. We honour the spirits of those who were taken from their homes and perished during the Middle Passage, those who made it and continued to fight for Black liberation in various ways and those yet to be fertilized.  We recognize that the systems of colonization and enslavement remains embedded in the Canadian fabric and results in ongoing anti-Black violence and carnage, including lack of safety, capitalism, exploitation, and death, in Black communities and families.

Thank you Dr. Delores Mullings for the gift of these words.
