Today, Marc G. Serré, Member of Parliament for Nickel Belt and Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Official Languages, announced $97,500 to help Camp Horizon modernize its operations and become more environmentally sustainable. The announcement was made on behalf of the Honourable Patty Hajdu, Minister of Indigenous Services and Minister responsible for FedNor.
Provided through the Government of Canada’s Tourism Relief Fund (TRF), this non-repayable investment helped Camp Horizon install a septic system. This project is supporting the long-term success of the business by ensuring its operations meet health and safety requirements, while improving the overall guest experience. Upgrading onsite infrastructure has allowed Camp Horizon to connect cottages and trailers to the new septic system, which has helped reduce its environmental footprint and paved the way for future growth opportunities.
