• Adult Chaperone: adults (21 years of age and older) must be with the youth throughout the conference, it is necessary that there is at least 1 male adult chaperone for every 10 young men and 1 female adult chaperone for every 10 young women. We realize that there are situations where it may be challenging to find another chaperone, however, the conference staff has found that dual chaperones are imperative, especially in times of ministry and for supervisory reasons.

• Priests: This year, we are waiving the registration fee (including meals and housing) for priests with the understanding that the priests attending will available to administer the sacrament of Reconciliation at designated times throughout the conference weekend. It is our hope that this will encourage groups to invite priests to attend a youth conference as part of their group.
