Common Questions Answered Why should I send my kid to Junior Seminar? AYF members who attend Junior seminar walk away with a sense of belonging to the organization. While local meetings and events are great ways to involve our junior members, a weekend away with other AYF members (especially out of the local scene) introduces our younger members to being independent in the organization. They also spend the weekend learning about AYF and other aspects that created this organization. In addition, they leave with new friends they have met throughout the weekend.
Common Questions Answered What is the overall goal of the weekend? The overall goal of the weekend is to educate and enjoy! This weekend is dedicated to our Juniors and we want them to leave with an understanding and education on who/what the AYF is; excitement to participate and take on leadership roles at their local levels; and new friends to continue to encourage them to come back to our regional events!
Common Questions Answered Who is watching my kids? The kids are being watched by the Senior AYF members who elect to spend their weekend at Seminar. This year, JSC is focusing on the ratio of juniors to seniors keeping it at 3:1. Two Counselors and one LIT will be present with the campers/cabins at all times.
Common Questions Answered What about safety? The campers are under constant supervision the entire weekend. Each cabin of campers has 2 counselors and 1 LIT (Leader-In-Training). 2 out of the 3 are requested to always be present with the kids at all times. At night, the Junior Seminar Committee works with the Central Junior Committee to establish a Night Watch Plan. There is an onsite nurse and Dr. the entire weekend taking care of medication distribution and any injuries or accidents that might occur during the weekend. Lastly, the Camp Lutherlyn has a staff present as well, who in case of emergency are available.
Questions???
