Today's teens have something to say. They have ideas, and opinions, and they want someone to listen.
On Saturday, November 21, more than 250 area teenagers will meet to not only talk, but take action as part of the 2009 Teen Leadership Summit.
The City of Savannah's Leadership Development Institute in collaboration with the Chatham County Youth Commission are hosts of the one-day event.
The summit will feature a variety of workshops for teens on how to pursue personal, future and community excellence. Some of the topics include: Divas By Designs: A Self Image and Self Esteem Check up (for females only), Making the Right Moves without the Ball (for males only) , The Power of Leadership, Hip Hop 101, Utilizing Poetry as a Tool for Empowerment, and Money Management Tips for Teens.
The summit will also include entertainment by Du Wop Boyz out of Atlanta and the keynote speaker will be actress and motivational speaker Cee Cee Michaela from the UPN hit comedy "Girlfriends".
News 3 Coastal Sunrise Anchor Kim Gusby will serve as moderator for the luncheon portion of the program.
