Young kings conference
young queens conference
Young Kings & Queens Conferences were created:
* To inform, educate and encourage the youth in our communities as they persue greatness in multiple arenas;
* To mentor young men and women by providing guidance with life strategies to help them mature into well rounded individuals; and
* To equip the youth with skills and knowledge that will enable them to make positive impacts in the communities they live and serve.
The conferences are designed to provide a significant wealth of information in a short period of time. This is the type of information most youth won't acquire through school alone. Attendees will enjoy a positive, uplifting and inspiring experience in which they can walk away with nuggets of wisdom that may very well be life changing!
