Power Up North!

Power UP North

The 2021 event was a great success.   Metis Crossing was an excellent and beautiful venue and we truly appreciate their efforts in making it something special.

Plans will start being made for Power UP North 2022.  The torch has been passed to Community Futures Tawatinaw office and they are planning an event in Athabasca.  Stay tuned for details as those decisions are finalized.
