Our High School Leadership Development Camp put on the by the American Red Cross Utah Region and is often said to be one of the most incredible experiences of the participants lives!
LDC is for youth who are currently in 9th, 10th or 11th grades and is for Utah residents only. It is a camp for kids who are looking to improve their leadership skills no matter what their current level. The camp will be the third week in June 2012 and lasts from Monday-Friday. We focus on developing leadership through learning your own values, recognizing the diversity and value of diversity in others, and being part of your community and your world. Getting outside of your comfort zone is the name of the name of the game. All applicants are interviewed and selected based on their willingness to try new things and be involved. The curriculum and schedule are not made known to participants... its all a big surprise and trust me this is very important to how powerful camp is. Return participants have this to say:

"LDC 2011 was a life changing experience!! It made me realize who I really am and what my values really are.
