Student Link Conference
Student Link Conferences help Link Leaders from across the country to connect with one another and increase their leadership skills while engaging in play. They are also a great way for Link Leaders to see that they are a part of a larger community that is focused on developing leadership and improving school culture.
Link Crew certified coordinators are invited to bring their Link Leaders to a celebratory half-day conference hosted by Boomerang Project in schools throughout the United States.
Conference Details
- The day will begin in the gym at 8:00 AM and end at 12:15 PM (unless otherwise noted - please look over your confirmation email carefully)
- We will provide a snack at approximately 10:30 AM
- Please have your Link Leaders wear their Link Crew T-shirts
A Boomerang Project Speaker will guide your leaders through a series of mixers and activities that will allow them to connect with Link Leaders from around their area. The focus is to celebrate them for providing a powerful and positive experience for your incoming class. Your Leaders will also hear a keynote that will inspire them to return to school with an even greater concern for other students and campus culture.
There will also be a session for coordinators to gather ideas from other schools participating in Link Crew.
