Nineteen youth from the Pacific Northwest Conference traveled over 28 hours and 1700 miles to attend the Western Regional Youth Event in Billings, Montana. They heard from several talented speakers, including an African drummer and storyteller, a musician, and Amy Roloff from the TV show "Little People, Big World." The youth also participated in service projects like cleaning up after a tornado and sorting donations. They connected with each other through workshops, activities, and sharing their experiences each day. The last day included fun outdoor activities like rappelling before beginning their long drive home.
