Our Leader Lab sessions are specifically designed to encourage and equip your adult staff and volunteers with practical youth ministry knowledge and resources to strengthen their impact on your students.

We want to take our leaders a bit further as we contemplate what it means to be a real leader. To do this, we set aside one hour each morning during the week for Leader Lab sessions. Each year we ask some incredibly gifted leaders and speakers to come in and give fresh thoughts and different perspectives to your leaders. We are convinced your leaders will leave camp not only encouraged by time with their students, but also refreshed and motivated by their time in Leader Lab.

CAMP FACILITIES: SOAR has two major Base Camp facilities: one in Balsam North Carolina where we have rustic cabins, a dining pavilion, on site showers/bathrooms, high and low ropes course, as well as several gathering campfire locations. The other is in Dubois Wyoming, where we have similar amenities as above except, this base camp is a working horse ranch!

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Philosophy: SOAR believes all individuals identified with learning disabilities (LD) and attention deficit disorder (ADHD) possess inherent talents and gifts. These abilities can mean incredible success in adulthood once these students negotiate the challenging obstacles of childhood, adolescence, and a traditional education system, usually unable to respond to individual learning styles.

SOAR's programs are designed to allow students the opportunity to increase their independence while away from home. Independence is gained through self-motivation and life skills instruction. With this in mind, we involve our students in many decision making processes, such as setting individual goals, developing group guidelines, as well as trip and meal planning.
