In the first part of 2026 we will have 6 ‘mini-retreats’ on the 2nd Saturday of the month, from January – June 2026, at 1:30-4:30 pm on the following Saturdays:

  • January 10
  • February 14
  • March 14
  • April 11
  • May 9
  • June 13

YOUTH

For middle & high school youth they will be specifically aimed at creating and editing content for the book project (writing, illustration, zines or other content). For elementary aged kids there will be a space to connect and build relationships (and possibly create things for the book, if there’s interest). Space will be limited and we will create a process to include returning folks and new people.

The June 13th mini-retreat will be expanded to accommodate out Annual General Meeting. You can participate online or in person (Tillicum Neighbourhood, Victoria).

**GGP Kids, Youth, Parents, Caregivers & Community Members Welcome**
­
We will be hosting our Annual General Meeting (AGM) at an extended version of our June 13th mini-retreat! The event will run from 1:30 – 7:00 pm (you don’t have to stay for the whole thing) in the Tillicum Neighbourhood of Victoria. **People will be able to join the AGM portion online**

The younger kids (grades K-5) will have fun games & activities to do throughout the time together. The older youth (grades 6-12), parents/caregivers, mentors, volunteers, board members, & community stakeholders will be encouraged to attend the AGM + a film screening & discussion afterward with our friends from Out on Screens/Out in Schools, starting around 4pm.

Following that, we will have a BBQ & propane firepit with s’mores starting around 5:30pm for all who want to stay and socialize. We’re excited to see you there!

AGM Application for All

MENTORS

Mentors support GGP in various ways, including leading or supporting workshops and supporting participants individually or in small groups. A mentor will also be helping with settling youth and creating a comfortable space for them to connect with others throughout the retreat.

**At this time, we are only looking for returning mentors. There will be an intake for new mentors before the retreat in Fall 2026.

VOLUNTEERS

We need volunteers to support with fundraising! If you have any ideas, from a bake sale, employer/union donations, food donations we’d love to support you in bringing them to life. We would also greatly appreciate volunteer support to create a fundraising team. If you or anyone you know are interested in being part of this team, please let us know. This will help us be able to have more robust programming in 2026. 😀
