Each year, the Beverly and Qamanirjuaq Caribou Management Board (BQCMB) channels funds to caribou-range community-based projects that ideally target school-age youth. This give kids a chance to gain new knowledge, learning from seasoned hunters, trappers and elders. The BQCMB community caribou program, started in 2007, has shifted its focus from hunting caribou to providing general “on the land” experiences. In recent years, the BQCMB has granted program funding to schools in Lutsel K’e, NWT; Black Lake, SK; Fond du Lac, SK; Hatchet Lake, SK; Tadoule Lake, MB; and Lac Brochet, MB, and Arviat, NU among others.
