Youth at Conference
May 30-June 3, 2012, SAIT, Calgary AB
Youth at Conference is an event that happens alongside the Meeting of Alberta Northwest Conference. Each Presbytery is to send 4 youth (2 Jr high (grade 7-9) and 2 Sr high (grade 10-12)). Both age groups participate in the meeting and their own program.
Sr High youth are delegates, which mean they get to vote on the decisions being made during the meeting.
Jr High are corresponding members, which means they can speak to the issues but not vote.
Though the form says the application is due March 1, we of Red Deer Pres. are able to push that back to March 15.
Please download the the brochure with detailed information on this event and the Application Form, if you are interested.
