Teenagers in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties can learn leadership skills, earn hundreds of volunteer hours and meet new people this summer in events offered by Chain Reaction.
Local teens can attend Chain Reaction’s Annual Teen Convention at First City Baptist on June 10, June 11 and June 12.
Participants not only learn important life lessons and leadership skills, but they also will have the chance to meet community leaders and other teenagers in the Pensacola Metro area.
The $65 cost includes food, convention T-shirt and convention curriculum.
Volunteers will earn 16 service hours from the convention.
Teens also can volunteer at Pensacola State Kids’ College. By volunteering for Kids College, teens will have the opportunity to be camp counselors and lead classes for elementary and middle school students.
By volunteering at Kids College, teens have the opportunity to earn up to 400 service hours by the end of the summer.
When volunteering teens will be assisting teachers in the camps for different classes such as art, music, sports, chocolate, Legos, space, movie making, science and many more.
