For over 30 years The YES has been offering week-long youth leadership retreats to provide young people, ages 14 to 16, a chance to learn new skills, appreciate new values, and grow as individuals.
Camp activities and sessions include:
• self-awareness
• communication
• leadership
• co-operation
• event planning committees (such as Ultimate Frisbee, Talent Shows, and Theatre Sports)
The YES develops the excellence present in all young people by modeling exceptional behavior and presenting quality self-development programs. There are also challenging outdoor activities including kayaking, canoeing, wilderness training and a special emphasis on the environment!
