Youth Leadership Program is Back for Central Mass Students!

Want to boost that college resume while having the funnest week of your summer?

What is TRAILBlazers?
It’s a week long program designed to give teens the skills and experience necessary to become better leaders within their community.  Effective and proven leadership styles and approaches will be discussed and practiced. Teams compete in daily leadership challenges for PRIZES and SCHOLARSHIPS, all while earning a valuable asset for college and job applications.  

Other reasons students should attend...they will:
-Learn & utilize valuable leadership skills
-Meet new people while serving local non-profits
-Listen to innovative community figures speak about different aspects of leadership 

The program is held at the Shrewsbury High School, but those from any central Mass high school may apply to participate.  Applications should be in by July 6th, and while we try to fit as many people in as possible, there is limited space.  

The application and additional information can be found at this link:
