Camp Dawson, Kingwood, WV

Conference Information and Schedule

·     The State Leadership Conference set-up will follow a similar set-up as the National Leadership Conference. The event will be set up as it is outlined in the National Guidelines. Presentation equipment will not be provided unless otherwise noted in the Guidelines. Please ensure that you are preparing students to utilize their devices, practice presentation/event timing, and practice in a loud and visually distracting area – as this will better prepare them for SLC and NLC competition environments. Competitors are encouraged to practice in front of the mirror, with friends, family, and industry members.

·     Workshops, Community Service activities, Expo Hall, and Study Areas, will be set up for students to participate and network.

·     Dinner will be provided on Wednesday. Breakfast, lunch and snack will be provided on Thursday; all these meals and snacks are included in the registration cost. Meals are “cafeteria style” and members will be assigned a designated time to eat as we must rotate through the dining room. There is a small store on-site with drinks and snacks available for purchase.

·     Wednesday will include on-site "fun" activities, featuring swimming, cornhole, singo/karaoke, a game room, and lounge area.
