The event for middle and high school students is a daylong celebration of speakers, presentations and skits, which will culminate with a concert given by Ceili Rain, a Celtic Christian band from Syracuse, N.Y.

According to David Tschumper, youth minister at the parish and coordinator of the event, the kids are in for a great time.
