The Columbia County Chamber of Commerce is now accepting applications for its Youth Leadership Columbia County program, presented by Cadence Bank.

The program -- a junior version of the Chamber’s highly successful Leadership Columbia County program -- is designed to educate and motivate young leaders through experience, enabling them to take an active role in their community. The program results in strong leaders who have hope for the future and the tools to influence a positive and progressive community. Participants must be rising sophomores or juniors in Columbia County public high schools, private schools or home school students.

Applications can be downloaded at columbiacountychamber.com/Youth-Leadership-Columbia-County and are due to the email address [email protected] by April 1, 2020.
