Who better to support you on your Congressional Award journey than fellow program participants?
As part of a Wyoming Congressional Award club, you’ll get to work toward your goals with support, feedback, and encouragement from other participants in your area, as well as have opportunities to earn hours toward your goals together.
What do you do as a Wyoming Congressional Award club member?
Many club members coordinate their Voluntary Public Service, Personal Development, and Physical Fitness activities to earn hours together.
Examples of activities include:
- Tutoring
- Making blankets or cards to share with local non-profits
- Volunteering to help with after-school activities
- Organizing grounds clean-up days
