camp bar-v-nok, pigeon lake

SUNIA takes place at Camp Bar-V-Nok, a summer campsite near Pigeon Lake, Alberta. Apart from being the perfect location for outdoor recreation, Camp Bar-V-Nok provides students with heated cabins, fully-equipped bathrooms, and three fresh meals and snacks every day.

Students get to enjoy the scenery by spending time at the lake, whether it be swimming, canoeing, or just chilling. Learn more about Bar-V-Nok here.

Although the organization that runs Camp Bar-V-Nok is affiliated with The Orthodox Church, SUNIA is not religiously affiliated and the contents of our programming remain unchanged.

land acknowledgment

SUNIA acknowledges that our program takes place on Treaty 6 Territory, upon the traditional lands of the Cree, Blackfoot, Stoney, Tsuut’ina, Ktunaxa, and Métis peoples. We also acknowledge the Cree nations of Pigeon Lake whom we share the land with. We respect and honour the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit whose footsteps have marked these lands since time immemorial.
