Anytown Experience
Respect and awareness develop, as delegates become friends, learning from and about each other. Workshops, discussion groups, assemblies and special events contribute to the Anytown experience. Leaders from Oklahoma’s cultural, professional, religious and educational institutions serve as resources.
Anytown delegates are the leaders of tomorrow. Anytown prepares them to make decisions based on an awareness, appreciation, and understanding of the diversity that exists in all aspects of life. Delegates leave Anytown with a comprehensive understanding of what it means to be a world citizen.
Delegates
Anytowners represent a wide variety of racial, religious, ethnic and economic backgrounds.
The Anytown selection process begins with the submission of an application and a letter of nomination from an adult advisor involved in a leadership activity listed on the application.
The cost of the week-long Anytown session, $350, includes round-trip bus transportation from Tulsa and Oklahoma City to camp, meals and housing, an Anytown T-shirt, and all workshop materials. Insurance is provided for the camp. Scholarship assistance is available.
