Now in its sixth year, the Air Force Reserve/Air National Guard  Teen Leadership Summits are week-long camps for 14 through 18 year old dependents of current AFR or ANG members.

Teens will focus on leadership development and self-confidence, learn about programs and services available to Air Force dependents, and build an appreciation for and sense of belonging to the Air Force community.
 
Summits offered are:

Classic Teen Leadership Summit
Wahsega 4-H Center
Dahlonega, Georgia
June 16-21, 2013

Adventure Teen Leadership Summit
Cheley Colorado Camps
Estes Park, Colorado
August 13-18, 2013

Eligibility requirements, selection criteria and frequently asked questions are located at http://www.georgia4h.org/afrangteensummit.

Most costs including airfare from the closest major airport, meals, lodging and camp registration fees are supported by Air Force Child & Youth Programs through a partnership with the University of Georgia and the Georgia 4-H.

To apply, teens must visit and complete an application with essays at http://www.georgia4h.org/afrangteensummit.

Deadline to apply is April 15, 2013.

Adult volunteers are also needed to support the camping program. Volunteers must arrive one day before the teens, supervise the teens in cabins and complete the Georgia 4-H screening process while having fun with the teens in the camp programming.

Like teen participants, most costs are centrally supported. Military members, in past years, have often been granted permissive TDY to attend. Information and application packages for adults are located at the same website.
