Program Overview

Thank you for your interest in the 2008 Georgia Youth Summit. Through generous support from the Governor and General Assembly, the Summit is a collaboration of the Georgia Rural Development Council and Georgia 4-H Youth. The dates for the 2008 Georgia Youth Summit are September 20th - 22nd, 2008.

Each county throughout the state of Georgia will select four rising 10th and/or 11th graders plus one adult to participate in the program. The county is seeking emerging leaders that are interested in the future of their communities.

To apply for one of the five spots reserved for your county, complete the application and submit it to your respective County Extension Office by May 15th, 2008. The county extension office will coordinate the selection of delegates and notify you of your status.

Youth-adult partnerships are critical to the success of each county team. For more information about the role and responsibilities of the adult delegate click here.
