With over 140 competitions, each student can find an area that interests them. Students compete in the categories of music, oratory, art, athletics, academics, and Christian service.
The most important part of convention is the evening rallies where powerful messages are given, emphasizing salvation and Christian growth. Rallies are where lives are changed for eternity.
The excitement is ongoing at convention. Students have the opportunity to meet and mingle with new friends, collect stamps and trading pins, participate in Game Zone, and much more!
