Raise up n Represent is a great programme for young people 13 to 18 years old. It was developed at the YMCA specifically for teens and has proven to be really popular wherever it has been introduced.
Regardless of where you live or what your interests are; whether you want the challenge of being a leader or are happy just hangin', there will be something on the Raise up n Represent programme that suits.
Contact your local YMCA and ask if they have a Raise up n Represent programme you can check out!
To meet new friends, try new activities, learn new skills and have heaps of fun, YMCA Camps and outdoor education programmes are an awesome adventure.
YMCA offers outdoor pursuits in bush, beach and water enviroments while creating traditional YMCA camp fun.
Activities can include kayaking, high ropes, confidence course, abseiling, rock climbing and more.
