Annual leadership training for 6th -11th grades thats 2 1/2 days long. Occurs at Bethal Horizons, Dodgeville, which includes low and high ropes course. They learn leadership skills, decision-making skills media tactics, issues surrounding youth, and how to take action in their schools and communities. One major component of the conference is an action planning session where the youth determine the issue they want to focus on in their school and then decide how they are going to address it. The youth meet regularly within their schools and then periodically as a whole county group.

We have done 3 round ups with over 350 lbs of prescriptions drugs being collected. Often we do this at Elder Fest and such events. The purpose is to keep the drugs from youth who sell the pills or use them to get high and to preserve the environment. If you have drugs to be disposed of, please contact us!
