Youth Conference Dates, March 30 – April 2, 2008
Quinault Beach Resort, Ocean Shores WA
It’s that time again! That conference you enjoyed so much last year… IT’S BACK!
The theme for the year’s conference is Living, Learning, Loving and Laughing. Workshops, activities and special events will feature these themes.
By popular demand, we’re bringing back Chance Rush, as well as many of the other well received workshops and activities you gave high marks to, on last year’s evaluations. New workshops for this year will include timely topics for challenges teens currently face.
Creative workshops will last longer this year, so you have time to finish your projects – these include Drum & Painting (orange highlight – only 40 available), the rest are highlighted in turquoise such as Beading, Modeling, The Secret, and others. List your choices on the registration form. (It’s at the bottom of each individual registration information box.) These will be filled on a first come – first served basis. (Another good reason to register early!) A rough schedule is on the second page – so you can see all the exciting offerings. The choices are listed on the third page – together with the number of slots available.
Registration must be received by March 21, 2008 for the early registration rate of $100.00 per person. Any on-site registrations or registration forms received after March 21st will be $200.00 per person. The registration fee and will cover the t-shirts, workshops, the two banquets, and other incidental costs.
