What are the criteria for youth, group leader, and chaperone?
Group Leader: The adult responsible for organizing your trip and serving as the main contact for your group. Written and oral correspondence takes place between the group leader and the conference office. The group leader must be attending the conference and will be responsible for the entire group. Adult Chaperone: Young adult, age 21 +, attending to chaperone the youth. For the safety of the youth and to foster productive small group times, the ratio of youth to adult is 1 adult per 6 youth in your group. We ask that your group not exceed the maximum adult to youth ratio. This weekend is challenging physically and spiritually. It is a time of deep ministry and small group time. We recommend chaperones feel comfortable directing, sharing, and praying with youth. Youth: youth participants in the conference must be entering 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grades in the fall of 2011 or a 2011 high school graduate.
