A Letter From CCYC 2012 President:

CCYC 2012 “Branded”

I can almost hear my dad’s voice in what I’m about to say, but “in

the old days” student ministry looked a lot different. Before our

society’s media explosion, jobs completely centered on targeting teens, and information zooming around faster than the autobahn, the teenage life used to be a lot simpler. Today though, teens truly are targeted by so many mediums that going through the already difficult

time of figuring out who they are seems almost impossible. This year’s conference is “Branded.” The tag line we’ve been throwing around is “who are you wearing?” As you already know, the calling to

follow Christ is much greater than the calling of wearing

Abercrombie. Yet, students treat them the same. They throw on or

take off their faith when it’s convenient.

The heart behind “Branded” is that students recognize whom they

are in Christ and that their life reflect it.

Would you please join the planning team in anticipating the good

things that God will do with this theme? The ministry potential for

this topic is great. Join us in anticipating some powerful sermons by

Neil Alligood. Also, we’ve poured a lot of thought and prayer into

our workshops and are bringing in some leaders that we think are the cream of the crop. Each of the workshops will carry the direction of our theme as well. For instance, we won’t be simply telling kids

what worship looks like, but we’ll examine how our calling in

Christ shapes how we worship. We also believe that this year’s

youth group times are going to be fertile for students to make some

serious decisions about their relationship with God.

Please take a moment to read the material in this registration pack.

The five minutes invested now will help your group have a great

weekend with us! We’re looking forward to having you and will be praying for your group!

Matt Smith...our fearless leader

In Christ,
Matt Smith

2012 Conference Details: Neal Alligood

2011-09-13T20:53:00.001-07:00

Neal Alligood

Neal is a gifted communicator of God's word. For years, he has traveled extensively in the eastern part of the country speaking at youth camps and events. His passion is to see the world changed for Christ by encouraging everyone he meets to do their part.

Neal was the speaker at High School CCYC 2010 for "Hostage' and received such great feedback that we've invited him back!

If you've met Neal, you know he's a real guy who genuinely cares about people and spreading the gospel. Among his many roles, Neal is also the head coach of the Mid-Atlantic Christian University Men's basketball team. Go Mustangs! A little known fact about Neal is that he was actually once a contestant on 'The Price is Right'!

This clip is one we dug up of Neal at a Comedy club in Atlanta. Enjoy.

CCYC Policies Page:

2011-08-27T18:04:00.000-07:00

These policies exist to protect CCYC. CCYC is a volunteer, not for profit organization. We want to provide a fair and honest product/experience for all of our patrons without discrimination, interference or inconsistency.

Behavioral Problems

Any adult bringing a student (under the age of 18) to CCYC assumes responsibility for that student.
Any adult (person over the age of 18) that presents a serious problem (as determined by CCYC event staff) will be dealt with as a threat and local law enforcement will be called.
Students presenting behavioral problems (as deemed by CCYC event staff) will be dealt with seriously. Any serious issue is reason to be sent home immediately.
Disciplinary actions beyond that become the responsibility of the sponsoring church/organization and that student's parents or gardians.
In the event that laws are broken or charges are pressed, CCYC will be forced to abide by whatever course of action the local law enforcement determine.
CCYC is hosted in venues around NC with whom we would like to keep a good relationship.
CCYC is not liable for any damages in such cases.

Financial:

Registrations

Registration rates are determined by the date that moneys are received by our office. We will honor postage dates as a general rule. CCYC reserves to right to request money owed for registrations that were paid at an incorrect rate. (ex: Someone paying a $40 registration past the date of that registration's availability when they should have paid $50) Or that are outstanding.
We have 5 registration rates:

$30 - Super-early-bird is available to those who attended the most recent conference and is only available for a short period of time after that conference
$40 - Early-bird is the rate available before standard registration rate is applied
$50 - Standard registration is the rate paid in the weeks closest to an event as well as at the door
$30 - First Timers is available only to groups or churches who have never attended a CCYC conference before. This is not an individual rate for students or sponsors who have never attended but are attending with a church who has attended in the past. To clarify, this is a promotional rate intended to persuade new patrons to attend our event in hopes that, once seeing how awesome it is, will choose to return in future years!
$100 - Vender Rate. Anyone wishing to exhibit a booth at our event is required to pay the vender rate. This rate is for organizations such as colleges, summer camps, para-church organizations and merchants. CCYC reserves the right to offer discounted rates to groups who may be serving in one way or another at the event. For example, typically our featured talents will receive a complementary booth space.

Refunds: registrations are non refundable but are transferable. Transfer of registration is the responsibility of the individual who owns the registration spot.
Paying at the door: Patrons who wish to "register at the door" must realize that there is no guarantee of registration spots. In the event that we do have spots left it should be understood that individuals who register at the door may not receive all of the same amenities of individuals who pre-registered. Though we would like to accomodate everyone we simply cannot plan for people that we are not expecting.

Merchandise:

CCYC is not currently a merchandising organization at it's core. However we do have items for sell on our website. Being a volunteer organization it is possible that our actual inventory may not match our online "inventory". In the case that you purchase an item in our online store that we cannot provide you, we will contact you to make you aware of the mishap. We will offer you a replacement item. If you choose NOT to accept the replacement item we will reimburse you in full. Otherwise, payment is expected.

Missions Money:

Money that is collected in the name of "missions" will go directly to said organization. CCYC does not keep any overhead or kickbacks from funds raised for missions!

Reimbursements:

If a person connected with CCYC has made a purchase for CCYC (at the request of a planning committee member or officer only) and needs a reimbursement for that purchase, they must present a receipt (digital copies are fine) and request a check from the treasurer. Persons needing that information should contact ccycinfo@gmail.com

Support CCYC:

Churches or individuals wishing to partner financially with CCYC may contact ccycinfo@gmail.com We would love to partner with you! We are able to accept online donations.
