Lanyards
Instead of program books, we are going to have large lanyards.  This is large enough to have a small map of the venue, a schedule, how to go to confession, plus other small size things.  The schedule will also be on the large screen and posted through out the venue.  Also on the screen will be the words for the music, general information, bios for the speakers, etc.

SHARE THE GLORY
Every year we have an outreach component to the conference.  We try to rotate it with local, national, and global outreach.  This year we are choosing as our national outreach, Dirty Vagabond Ministries, a non-profit that reaches out to inner-city teens.  The website is http://dirtyvagabond.com/live/. As you will see on the site, Bob Lefnesky is the founder, and he is also the entertainment for the conference.  He will have some of his teens with him at the conference.  There are two videos and pictures that you can show your teens to get them excited about helping their peers.
We are asking that you contribute by bringing gift cards that could be used at the sites of the Ohio and New York outreach houses.  If your group wants to contribute to some aspect of the organization—support a Missionary, support the food program, etc—just specify and it will be honored.  Remember, what ever your group feels led to support, it must be transportable.

What would you like STLT to donate to Dirty Vagabond Ministries?

We still have 2 spots available!!!
