Congratulations!
You
have been selected to represent your school at the 31st
Annual West Virginia Hugh O'Brian Youth (HOBY) Leadership
Seminar. The seminar will take place May 15 -May 18 at the
University of Charleston in Charleston, WV.
Ambassadors are expected to attend the entire seminar.
If you cannot attend the entire event, please contact the
WV HOBY Director of Recruitment, Carol
Kennedy, or your high school guidance counselor. We
recognize that there are other important events taking place
at the same time as the WV HOBY Seminar. However, we will
continue to adhere to our attendance policy to comply with
HOBY International Rules and Regulations regarding attendance
at a HOBY Seminar. WV HOBY volunteers are sensitive to the
difficult decisions that ambassadors must make between conflicting
events. If you cannot attend the entire HOBY Seminar, we
ask that you allow another representative from your school
to attend.
In an effort to accommodate as many students as possible,
we will be considering late arrivals on Thursday, May 15th.
To be considered for late arrival, you must contact Carol
Kennedy at 912-537-7661 or Sabrina
Corra-Reynolds at 757-575-0432
(leave a message with your name, school, telephone number,
situation, and best time to reach you). Ambassadors that
leave the seminar early will not be permitted to return.

HOBY Attendance Policy.
This
year we are offering our pre-seminar packet online. The
packet includes seminar information, packing lists, directions
and paperwork that needs to be completed, signed, notarized
and returned to us. The packet contains 21 pages of information.
If you cannot download or print the packet, we will be happy
to send you a copy in the mail. We are hopeful that you
will be able to download and print this packet with minimal
effort.
We
are offering the pre-seminar packet online in an effort
to save money. As you know, the WV HOBY Seminar is offered
to students and schools free-of-charge. Many ambassadors
are sponsored by local GFWCs, Lions Clubs, Rotary Clubs,
and other civic organizations. Businesses throughout WV
also make corporate and gift-in-kind donations to the program.
Offering this packet online saves us hundreds of dollars
that can be used to enhance your seminar experience!
Part
of being a leader is taking care of details. You can demonstrate
your leadership abilities by downloading and completing
this pre-seminar packet and returning it by April
30, 2008.
