Participants in the Churchill Northern Studies Centre North of 58 learning vacation this March will have the chance to partake of a number of once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, including the RAWChurchill culinary experience – a meal prepared by world-class chefs under the northern lights at the Prince of Wales Fort.
The five-day program also includes a dog sled ride, data collection with a subarctic researcher and a snowmobile ride onto the sea ice of Hudson Bay, as well as museum visits and lectures on topics from wildlife to indigenous cultures.
“RAWchurchill is an exciting addition to our North of 58 program and an amazing opportunity for our participants,” said Stephanie Puleo, Churchill Northern Studies Centre program co-ordinator. “Travelling across the frozen river in a Tundra Buggy is truly unique to Churchill, and getting the chance to see northern lights above Prince of Wales Fort, national historic site is incredible. The opportunity to visit the fort and learn about Canadian history while enjoying an amazing meal compliments our program perfectly!”
The Churchill Northern Studies Centre is a non-profit research and education centres 23 kilometres east of Churchill that was founded in 1976.
