CONFERENCE DETAILS
City
on the Hill is a fantastic opportunity for students, ages 14 to 18, to
participate in leadership training and learn how government works. It will be a
challenge to your mental and spiritual growth.
For
five action-packed days, you will learn the legislative process by becoming a
state legislator. You'll carry actual legislation, learn public speaking skills,
and be equipped to debate today's critical issues.
You
will meet legislators, lobbyists, lawyers, educators, and others whose stories
and examples will both challenge you and awaken your imagination in many career
and leadership opportunities awaiting you.
The
bottom line is this... You'll have a lot of fun. You'll love the people you
meet. You won't be the same.
