Pimacihowin
"Making a Living"
The Pimacihowin project includes youth between the ages of 16-21 attending Cst. Robin Cameron Education Complex and Stobart Community School in Beardy’s Okemasis First Nation.
The program follows a semester system which consists of two five-month semesters in one academic school year.
The Pimacihowin Project collaborates with the housing coordinator and public works director to establish the priorities of renovation projects within the community.
Since the implementation of this project, these youth have shown increased attendance, engagement, and completion of training modules.
The Pimacihowin Project is a program that is recognized and supported by the Ministry of Education with the government of Saskatchewan. Additionally, the Pimacihowin Project also registers their participants with Saskatchewan Youth Apprenticeship Program.

This raised craftsman style bungalow has an inviting design reminiscent of a cabin. This design was inspired by the client’s desire to bring the feeling of the outdoors inside by incorporating warm earth tones and nature-inspired materials. They wanted a large kitchen and lots of big south-facing windows oriented for views of the backyard. It features floor-to-ceiling dual fireplace facade finished in river stone, a wood-finished ceiling that vaults as you enter the dining and living room, and overhead wood beams.
Creekside Bungalow is approximately 60% more energy efficient than the National Building Code standard, with a solar system. The projected energy savings over the next 50 years amount to $1,208,130.
