Leadership Development Program Kicks Off

Another year of LDP is here! Our popular LDP (Leadership Development Program) offerings are here for the lead-up to Summer 2026!

The Leadership Development Program gives teens entering 10th-12th grade an opportunity to develop character, establish a leadership style, provide service, and build community. This program is for those who love camp and want to learn the skill needed to transition from camper to camp staff member. Participants in the program (LDPs) get a chance to learn to how to lead others, facilitate camp activities, create an experience for the campers of YCG, and be a positive role at camp and in life. Those who successfully complete the program will earn a skill set that will transfer to any career path.

Registration Open Now for Fall LDP Retreat!

The best way for your camper to learn about the program and get any questions answered is to attend our LDP retreats. We host one in the Fall for general information and interest and we host a Spring retreat for those accepted into the program where they will receive training for the upcoming summer.
