CAMP!!

We just came back from the "Best Week of our Lives" at Frontier Ranch! 170+ leaders and students rode horses, hiked up a 14k mountain, repelled off a 120 ft. cliff, tackled a ropes course 50 ft high, owned the "Screamer" swing, were part of a western ho-down, water olympics (ever see 500 in a pool - it's crazy!) and SO much more. We all got to hear about how we were created and loved all while living OUT LOUD for an entire week in the mountains! Words cannot express what happened and pictures don't do it justice. IT was EPIC!!!

Congratulations Graduates!!

We wish you the best. Don't forget to send us your Alumni info so we can add you to the YL Nationwide database. Oh and come back for our Alumni Club!

For the YL database we need:

One LAST time!

Our end of the year "One LAST time" Kickball Tourny was a huge hit!! We had loud music, cook out, and the games were super fun and competitive. Everyone was super excited about the smoothie card prizes. To end it, the best part was the silly string fight! :)

Senior Club!

"It's so hard to say goodbye...to yesterday..."

Our last club was all about our '09 seniors! We had a great time, and got to listen to a few seniors tell what YL has meant to them. It was amazing. We love you and will miss you!!!

Wrappin' Up the School Year

Our May Clubs were a blast!! We PACKED the clubhouse with even more new friends and experienced crazy fun together. Who can forget Tacky Prom? It flew by but one thing was made clear as we heard talks from Phatt Matt and C-Rex and it can all be summed up by John 10:10:

"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."

That's how we roll!

Club 3/30

Club this past Monday was jam packed! We had students feeding other students jelly-beans out of buckets of ice water with their toes! We played a mean game of "birdie-on-the-perch" and sang and danced as the YL band played Burnin' Up, Bubbly and Amazin' Love! We found out there's only SEVEN SPOTS LEFT for camp this summer!! Then we watched as one of our amazing leaders shared her story through video about how we can easily put other things/people in God's place and it leaves our lives a mess, but the foundation we have or can have gives us hope and rebuilds us despite past hurts. It was awesome! Check the pics...
