This youth development initiative was created as a tool to empower the minds of future leaders, entrepreneurs, educators, doctors etc. The students are taught how to build rafts, abseil down a mountain, cross a river safely and more. They are also taught the value of teamwork and how to develop as an individual. They will participate in discussions surrounding current affairs, be encouraged to express their opinions and be enlightened by motivational talks and career guidance presentations.

A team of experienced skills development facilitators will be present throughout the five days of fun, excitement and learning. This is an opportunity for young adults from different lifestyles and circumstances to build friendships and lifelong bonds whilst gaining a wealth of knowledge. It is a chance for students to expand their horizons; experience new challenges, explore their options and express their opinions and ideas.

Students currently in grades 9, 10 or 11 can by writing a 500-word essay on, "If I were elected South Africa's next president, what would I do for my country?"
