Participants in the program will learn about the community and its ins and outs. There are 8 days in the program: Education Day, Local Government Day, Trip to Austin, Government Day, Economic Day, Tourism and Travel Day, Nonprofit Day, and Retreat. Retreat is a great opportunity for team building activities and breaking down guards and is held at Mo Ranch and takes place in the third week of September.
