Leaders Club is a program that embarks on utilizing a peer pressure approach by focusing on positive peer influences in a variety of educational, recreational and service learning type activities. Positive peer pressure influences teens to channel negative behavior into more positive and beneficial pursuits. This also helps to develop and enhance self-esteem, decision making and problem solving skills. A week prior to the start of the summer program participants are offered the opportunity to attend a week long wilderness challenge to enhance camaraderie, leadership and self worth. This year’s trip will be a bicycle trip along the C & O Canal. During the summer, youth will participate in service learning activities such as Adopt-a-Road clean up and volunteering at local nursing centers, participating in educational and prevention sessions that reinforce skills and activities from the school year program. Teens will also enjoy road trips to Washington, DC, Baltimore and Philadelphia. First year registrations will be accepted starting April 2nd.
