Leaders Club
This program is for teens, 13-18 years old that are committed to making the YMCA and our community a better place. Teens learn leadership skills while having the opportunity to apply these skills through volunteer opportunities at the YMCA as well as other community service projects. Leaders Club has a long standing tradition of excellence that culminates in an annual trip to the YMCA Blue Ridge Leaders School in Black Mountain, NC. Contact Brian Hernandez at 863-644-3528 for more information.
Annual Club Dues: $50
Youth in Government
For students in Grades 8 – 12
“Democracy must be learned by each generation.” That is the mantra of this program. Our YMCA is entering into our 42nd year of this very special program which has given an opportunity for hundreds of teens to learn about how their state government actually works! The YMCA Youth In Government is a program which had its beginning in the 1930s, the State of Florida held its first YMCA Youth Conference in 1956. The YMCA conducts this youth leadership, civic engagement program throughout the school year. Students experience the workings of state government by studying issues of local and state importance. Students prepare Bill Proposals, Criminal and Civil Supreme Court Cases and learn Parliamentary Procedures. Students attend an annual conference, which takes over the State Capitol and Supreme Court in Tallahassee in early 2009.
If you are interested in bringing the Youth in Government program to your school, contact Samantha Lane at 863- 644-3528.
Jr. Youth in Government
In 2005, the Youth In Government experience was extended to students in the 7th and 8th grades. Much like their high school counterparts, Jr. YIG’s middle school delegates form local chapters affiliated with their local YMCA branch. However, high school students act in the role of mentor and student advisor, teaching these future YIG rockstars all that they need to know! This unique setup makes our Jr. YIG program the ultimate service-learning project. Jr. YIG chapters are currently set-up at a few YMCAs across the state. These chapters may be a part of a Sr. YIG chapter or exist on their own. Please contact your local YMCA or Samantha Lane at 863-644-3528 for more information.
