Tips for Parents and Youth Attending the Conference

Would you like to get the most out of Youth Conference? As we've discussed the itinerary with youth and leaders, we've found there are some common questions. These topics should help you get the most out of the conference.

o Parents, please encourage your youth not to waste time on cell phones (calls or texting) during the conference.
o Encourage your youth to attend the entire conference, and help them get enough rest between days. If possible, we recommend the youth not stay out late or up late watching movies or other worldly things on Friday and Saturday night. They are going home to sleep, but they are still at Youth Conference.
o Parents plan to bring your youth to the Stake Center on Friday @ 9 am. Youth leaders will bring them back home on Friday and Saturday night. We ask that the youth attending the conference please not drive to the event.
o Youth, please wear appropriate clothing (For the Strength of Youth Standards apply). We recommend no open-toed shoes on Saturday in particular due to plans for hiking and service project.  
o Dress appropriately for the weather and consider need for sunscreen, hats, jackets, etc. We will be outside both days!
o Youth are encouraged to bring notebooks and pen for speaker workshops.
