YAMS

Youth Against MS (YAMS) is a wonderful and exciting new program for teens who have a parent or grandparent with MS. This program is for teens between the ages of 13 and 17. Teens will have the opportunity to make new friends, build self-confidence and have FUN!
The adventure begins with a ropes course at Tigertail Lake where teens will build trust and support. Next, teens will go cosmic bowling in Fort Myers and have a friendly competition among their peers. Lastly, teens will discover the great outdoors by kayaking and a scavenger hunt voyage at Oleta River State Park.
The YAMS program will culminate in an amazing Youth Against MS Teen Summit and Retreat at the Circle F. Ranch in Lake Wales, Florida in the summer of 2009. |
