Idaho Youth Seminar
Civitan Youth Seminar is a five-day conference sponsored by Adult and Junior Civitan clubs of the Idaho state that emphasizes team building and leadership in an exciting, fun, and meaningful format. Our seminar is an opportunity for high school students to learn more about topics relevant to today’s youth through interactive discussion groups led by professionals. We also provide recreational activities including a dance, picnic, talent show, and awesome games. It is a powerful experience that delegates never forget.
