Summer Leadership Challenge (SLC) • Ages 13-16 Summer Leadership Challenge is a leadership development program that encourages exploration, independence, and personal growth. Young people participate in interactive workshops that prepare them for leadership roles and employment. Our goal is to empower students to effect positive changes within themselves and within their community. Young people will learn about employ-ment opportunities they can pursue now. They will become competent in leading others in activities and coordinate a “capstone” project benefiting young campers. In addition to developing useful skills, participants will earn service learning hours, receive individual participant evaluations and fulfill pre-requisite needed to become a Junior Counselor. At Summer Leadership Challenge, young people will establish lasting friendships, develop a sense of responsibility, learn to work more effectively in groups, build accountability, and gain the confidence to solve problems independently. You may only register for one (1) session of SLC. Participants may earn up to 35 SSL hours per session. No transportation is available. Program will not meet on Friday, July 3rd.
