FALL CONFERENCE
Welcome to Fall Con 2024!
For over 100 years, Fall Conference has been a year altering event, not only for students but also for the organization as a whole. This year, we want Fall Conference to feel like a big family reunion. Whether you’re a returning attendee or new to our family and Fall Conference, We encourage you to join us November 15th – 17th at Camp Horseshoe in Parsons, WV. You’ll never forget the friends and memories you will make, and the experiences you’ll leave with will help chart the course for the future of YLA.
