Fox’s and Oconee Chamber partner on YLO
We’re happy to announce a partnership with the Oconee County Chamber of Commerce to bring current 10th and 11th grade students a unique leadership opportunity! Fox’s will be facilitators of the 2015-2016 Youth Leadership Oconee program, which will include an opportunity to students to participate in a Fox’s focus group and special project team.
According to the Chamber, “the objective of Youth Leadership Oconee is to provide opportunities for young adults to develop leadership skills and the community awareness necessary to address challenges facing Oconee County. Current 10th and 11th grade students living or educated in Oconee (including home-schooled students) who want to further develop their leadership skills and channel those skills towards helping other and improving community should apply.”
The leadership program will also include the most important facets of the Fox’s Junior Advisory Board that has been provided to students in past years. Application deadline is September 4th. Get more information on the programs and sign up at the Oconee County Chamber application page. We are looking forward to this combined program, and look forward to getting started in October!
